Ok guys, well I've decided I'm going to go with the original theory...
I'm just gonna run the PCV with a brake booster check valve and also add the Lowes compressor filter on the breather line and moniter the oil comsumption....Then, atleast with the glass catch tube on the compressor filter it will be alot easier to moniter the oil...
Mangostick~I thought about how you have yours set up, but I'm trying to keep it smog legal...Your set up is basically like having to breathers only you have an additional catch can...Thanks for your pics though!....
John R~Thanks for the idea, but I'd rather buy a purpose made catch can then make one out of a GM part, hehe....I love all makes of cars, but I just don't have the time or patients right now to fabricate an oil separator/catch can....Espeically, when you include the price of gas (about $3.30 for 91oct) to and from the hardware store (5-6 times), welding shop (don't have a welder) as well as to the junkyard, and don't forget the $2.00 junkyard entry fee either...
Jbuffethead~No that's not a breather and is the top port even capped off?....Keep an eye on your IAC harness too...It looks like the plug is broken and will probably come loose and cause an idle problem.....
I'll keep everyone posted on my results...Hopefully I can contain my 200,000 mile engine for a while longer....
Thanks guys
Rob
