I was running a blower last season (03 GT) and gutted my PCV and had each valve cover running to a catch can with a breather located in the wheel well. Worked fine and kept any oil out of the intake/discharge tube. Now i am back to being NA, i wonder if the catch can is necessary, plus in the colder months, the Can is being exposed to the cold 50-35 degree weather and with the hot vapors going to it, causing condensation in the Can, drain mostly water out of it. Plus i can smell the oil fumes all the time with the setup and getting a little condensation into the motor (get a little white inside the oil fill cap - been like that on 2 engines). Would switching to some Autozone tiny conical valve cover breathers be wiser? Will it make a mess? Is the smell still there?
I can't run the stock set up due to lack of provisions for hose to the aftermarket plenum/manifold
