thats exactly what i mean. i don't think it would be a problem since the pcv will be eliminated.

i'm about to ditch the pcv myself. i currently have a breather in my passenger side valve cover so i'm just gonna put another one in the back of the lower somehow where the pcv is.

I run 1 on each. I have clearance to run a second fox cover on the driver side.


My new combo is going to have a dedicated vacuum pump and breather can.

I run one breather on the valve cover, and I run a line from the PVC to the bottom of the car. Works great.

As long as the PCV is eliminated you shouldn't have a problem. I'm running two breathers on my car with no PCV.

so instead of running the hose from the pcv to the intake u just run the hose to the bottom of the car?

If this was directed toward me, my intake doesn't have a place to put the PCV valve.

So what are you guys doing? Putting a rubber cap on the pcv, & then running a breather on each valve cover? Im supercharged & im getting alot of oil in my intake using a breather on the passenger side w/ a turbo pcv connected to an oil seperater.

I'm thinking of just reversing the ol' smog pump, and make it pull vaccuum from the motor for the 383.
