I do. Every breather I've tried sweats oil. Don't want to run a "puke can", too ugly.

77Charger, What kind of tall breathers are you using? I am using moroso push in styleand no pcv valve, and i am getting to much oil leaking out breathers.

I do! Got smart and figured out why engineers got paid more than me. No problems since. I can live with the 1/40 loss of a horsepower due to reburn of oil mist.

I run 2 K&N clamp-on breathers on the end of the risers intended for a puke tank system. The risers are baffled and I have never leaked a drop.

Just wondering ..... I doWell not exaclty environmental friendly, but I have steel braided lines that come out of the breathers from the valve covers and they run into a hole that is tapped into the side of the headers. I heard this is a drag race type of config and is best to keep crank pressures down. If you look here you can see them....

I have heard that this is the best way of doing it, through the exhaust.
