i have a catch can on my TA its catching quite a bit of oil but i keep reading people deleting the pcv system completely and runnin 1 or 2 breathers on the valve covers. im thinking about goin for it but i am not sure yet some say u dont ventilate enough crankcase pressure without the pcv valve going into the intake but i cant see how a open breather wouldnt vent the pressure as needed .has anyone done this and had luck on an LS1. some opinions appreciated.
