Ok heres whats happening, I have two 1/2 O.D. barbs welded on top of valve cover. One going to a check valve to catch can to intake, the other to catch can to intake turbo pipe. Much like stock, only bigger lines.
Problem is PCV side is sucking tons of oil into catch can in matter of minutes. like a straw in a soft drink. The baffling is still in the valve cover untouched. my vacuum is around 15 hg at idle.
Ive thought of a solution, tell me what you think.
Drill/tap a hole for 1/2" 90* barb on top of balance shaft hump on the front of the 4G63 motor. Just south of the water pipe.
1. it will help keep oil out of the lines/catch can/intake.
2. vapors drawn out at lower end of motor allowing oil to freely fall from head, back to pan without a vacuum upstream.
3. this is the highest an driest part of the block to perform this mod.
I would like to keep a closed pcv system. (no breathers)
Has anyone done this?
