ok i have been getting oil up my TB and spacer and i was told that it could be caused by the pcv screen being bad..i took my pcv valve out and there is no screen at all...i have a vortech upper with a ported truck lower..is there any way to "make" a screen. i looked at my old stock lower and it looks like maybe i could use some steel wool or something..even if i do make some type of screen to put in there,will it fix my problem??

You could easily introduce a filtration system between the PCV Valve and the intake/tb. Do a search and you will find out how. It took me about 45 min and $25 to make my setup. The filters are drainable, so without having that screen you will likely be emptying it a lot.

If you don't like Lowe's/Home Depot, Steeda sells a complete kit (looks dead on like what I made, even uses same filter style).

Forget 5.0 Resto for this. Go to Advance Auto.

Also, I paid like 4 or 5 bucks at the dealer, if that is more convenient.

Are you sure you don't have one in there? It's in there pretty deep. We replaced myn yesterday along with tuneup stuff. That was one hell of a pita to get out of there.
