    each side of motor should be vented, if you can pick up a LS6 valley cover and vent the valley of motor as well

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    I'm starting to agree with George. I had an improved STS PCV setup and even with the catch can I was still losing oil. I pulled all that crap off and just put filters on the valve covers. I'm hoping to at least see LESS oil consumption. From what I hear, oil consumption through the PCV increases heavily with a turbo'd engine. Hopefull the KISS solution will remedy the "dissapearing oil" problem

    ~ Forged engine of some type ~ Ball bearing turbo of an unconfirmed size ~ 4L8000 trans ~ Beefy fuel system ~
