PCV Question
I have the mini filter on the first valve cover breather, which has been fine..
The 2nd port w/the pcv valve going to a little catch can..
I don't think it's enough, b/c my dip stick will still pop up every now and again.
I was thinking of drilling the pcv valve and just running it open to the little catch can.
Thoughts?

Similar to my setup, although I have both valve cover hoses to my catch can. There are a few holes drilled in my catch can to relieve pressure. One of these days I will tap a filter to it though as I sometimes see it venting...

If you have the AP2 valve cover you could just take the pcv valve out cap off the intake manifold and just put a fitting im forgetting the size and run that to your catch can that is what i did and has worked great.

I'm running a 90* barbed elbow in lieu of the PCV valve. That solved my dipstick problem . That and I just vented both to atmosphere, I haven't seen a drop of oil come out of it yet, maybe it's just my car

I'm assuming we're removing the pcv because there is no vacuum to pull it open?
I am going to pull the pcv tonight, and drill it out.
