Hey yall im going out on a limb here and trying something. I removed the entire cdr assembly and left only the hose that came off the fill tube. I capped off the intake and rolled over to autozone and picked up an edelbrock valve cover breather. I removed the rubber grommet and pushed the breather right down into the tube coming off the filler. Then i installed a hose clamp. On top of cleaning up the engine bay, this will also keep oil out of the intake and relieve crankcase pressure. I have some driving to do to verify this modification, so let me know your opinions.

Good Luck.Let us know it works out for you after you replace your engine gaskets and seals.That valve is part of the crankcase ventilation system and needs to be there.It has nothing to do with emissions or turbo.You have to remember that this engine has a 17-1 compression ratio.Lot of back pressure being made inside.Tom
