The port in the rearmost part of the lower intake in "puffing" smoke out. It has the mesh screen installed. It was still pretty clean when I installed it a few months ago.
My guess is because I have no PCV system, and I have to much crank pressure...? I have a cap on the valve cover oil fill port, which was previously a large breather. And the port on the side of that, which would normally lead to a vacuum on the manifold, is just an open hose ran down towards the ground. which was previously a small breather...
Motor is a non-roller (1980's I think) 306, Keith black flat top pistons, GT40P heads, BBK Long Tubes, and all the other bolt on stuff... Compression is around 9.5:1, give or take. Pretty common average set up.
I have a complete Novi 1000 set up ready to go on. But before I do this, I need to work out every last detail. I plan to run a catch can set-up to hopefully relieve this excessive crank case pressure. My idea is: Run one -8an Hose from each valve cover to a sealed tank (no breather). Then run one line from that to the large vacuum port on the intake manifold. But I'm curious if i need an actual PCV or "Krank-Vent" somewhere?
Would this be suffice?
