I have a Ford Performance breather behind the intake in the traditional PCV location. It is a standalone with no line running from it. I also have a PCV in the passenger's side valve cover with a line that runs to the upper intake. See attached photo.Why are there breathers on a 93 ?
Huffed or puffed?
PCV operational?
then you say:spews oil out the rear breather onto the trans and exhaust at high rpm. Not a sustainable predicament.
this is my opinion but this is possibly the reason, unless you have an excessive amount of crankcase pressure or is adding to the problem.I have a Ford Performance breather behind the intake in the traditional PCV location.

The PCV, which is located on the passenger's side, is running via a single hose to the port on the underside of the intake. I'm not sure what you mean when you say is the baffle intact. The only item venting preasure is the baffle in the . The PCVthen you say:

Oil 'splash' traveling to the back of the lifter valley is being pushed out the breather, that said, is the PCV hose hooked up to vacuum by itself?
Is the oil baffle under the intake intact? Have you checked for excessive blow-by?
The PVC is hooked up to vacuum under the driver's side intake. The baffle toward the rear of the engine is intact, but the round shape style with numerous small holes underneath. I have not checked for excessive blow by as it's a new engine.then you say:

Also , I’m not being a downer I’m seriously asking - that thing is down like close to 50-80hp at the tire in my opinion .Ford Performance Z2363 engine and T-56 transmission are finally installed. Had the car tuned today. Made 375 hp and 357 torque and I suspect it has a bit more in it.
Overall the car hauls ass, BUT spews oil out the rear breather onto the trans and exhaust at high rpm. Not a sustainable predicament. So now I need to run some ventilation via a catch can. I was planning on running a line from the rear PVC behind the intake and from the top of one of the valve covers (two lines) to a catch can. Any suggestion on parts (90 degree elbow and catch can) from guys who have dealt with this situation?
It is advertised at 507 crank HP by Ford. It's probably good for 420 RWHP with 3" exhaust. It's got a bit more in it as is with 91 octane here.Also , I’m not being a downer I’m seriously asking - that thing is down like close to 100 hp at the tire in my opinion .
We know the dyno is a tool and should be used as such but I’d expect a high compression 363 to make closer to 500 at the tire especially with a stick.
So, I checked and there is no metal screen and housing in the existing PCV port. I'll need to install that.You can run the back like a regular pcv and put the breathers in the valve covers .
Or put a freeze out plug in the pcv hole - get motion race works push in an fittings for your valve covers and run 2 -10 or -12 an lines to the catch can
I would love to see your catch can system when you’re finished. I’ve wanted to go that direction for awhile but I haven’t seen any clear cut solutions I like and I know you’re very detail oriented.I'm going to install the screen and mount a catchcan on the firewall with a line running from the passenger valve cover pcv and rear engine breather/baffle locations. I'll eliminate both those items and replace them with a 90 degree fitting.
