Default Catch can in place of PCV, hose confusion.

I understand a catch can set up on a n/a dd car is pointless, which this set up is not going on. My questions are in total I will need 4 hoses 2 tapped to the VC and 2 going to the block(i'm letting it drain back). my question is where on the block do the 2 lines go ? I know I need fittings and a pcv block off(all comes in the kit). do I have to do anything special to install the 2 block fittings ?. my TB/intake gets gummed up pretty badly and i've been having issues with my pcv box leaking etc.
compression is sold on the car also but I'm still getting lots of blowby ?


looking at the BWR kit

I would run the lines to the top of the oil pan and into the oil pressure port..?

why not just get the prelude block fittings and use those with a ebay catch can.

Why would you ever let that junk drain back into the block? It seems fairly counter-productive to me.

x2 ^ the catch can isn't going to fill up and over flow as long as you drain it every time you do an oil change.

The fittings go in the back on both sides of the oil filter like this



And you only need the right size allen head thingy to get the old ones out, mine were in pretty good so I used a short breaker bar to get them loose.



As for the freeze plug for the pcv hole, you just hammer it in place I think. My motor didn't have one so I didn't have to use it.

Thank you kaycee for the pics, haven't been to the garage in a while since i'm waiting for parts lol. As for the drain back I heard about possible oil starvation by not having that option . so 2 bung's welded to the VC and 2 coming off the block via the fittings.


the car is a time attack car so it see LOT'S of sharp turns and sustained high RPM's.

A baffled oil pan will correct that issue for the most part lol not a drain back for the vapors that get collected into the can. Just make sure the can is mounted in the highest spot possible and you shouldn't be filling it up with pure oil.

moroso baffled pan enroute


found the 3 block plugs separate from IPG but to confirm I will need 2 bungs welded on the VC 4 lines in total.
