    Default Bill, Winfred, other pro's.... what to do with this line?



    #5 in that image... it looks like it goes to the idle control valve on the back of the manifold. Is this a vacuum line of sorts or something? I need to know, because I need to know whether it needs to be blocked off. Since i am boosting the motor,I don't want to pressurize my valve train... any ideas?

    id run 3 and 5 to a vented catch bottle and see how it does, if it pukes too much oil a drain back tube may be in order like a m52 that drains to a nipple on the dipstick tube
    all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

    Winfred, #5 goes to the idle control valve, it looks like a vacuum line... this shouldn't be to a catch can

    the idle control valve is where the vacuum comes from, block it off at the valve and run the end from the valve cover to a can so the crank case can vent, you could probably block off the small hose and just let the 1/2" hose be the vent line, i can't remember if theres anything goofey in that nipple at the valve cover that would screw with it
