I run the endyn set up and I just emptied it for the first time... I dont have it draining back (you wouldnt either if you saw what it looked like) so it got about 1/3 full... (below the first hose fitting) the oil came out kinda frothy i guess you could say...

 

yeah, kinda really dark frothy just nasty stuff.

Empty it and check it out after just one night of spirited driving and tell me how much is in there.

 

draining back into the motor, or into the exaust???

 

There is a drain back into the motor method or open breather method or vaccum/slash cut method......etc

All different theories on this .

 

I have never liked the drain back method. I dunno....if you are too cheap to replace the oil with fresh new....get a new hobby. If your car has that much blow by that you are worried about engine oil level, something is wrong.

Open breather method is somewhat effective and easy to do. Many people do this. I like the exhaust method to aid in the excavation of the vapors.

 

any chance on a write up for the slash cut method? thanks

 

its actually very easy... As opposed to running a breather filter on the top, run the pcv fitting, with a hose from the pcv valve (high temp rating is strongly reccomended) to a slash cut pipe welded into the exhaust... it must be inserted into the downpipe with the exhaust flowing over the slash cut as shown in the illustration below...

 

nice illustration, that should help everyone out a lot. It should be emphasized that the slash cut pipe needs to be welded or secured, you wouldnt want it turning around.

 

 

Ehh Oil Catch Cans are over Rated !!! My SOHC runs Great w/ out one !!! J/P... Vance, you should use your own words... "Cant you just leave anything alone?" If you just leave the car alone you wont need a damn catch can! It will run to 300,000 miles if you change the oil at the recomended length! Its fine, dont ever listen to the white guy!!! Cya later
