No, something is wrong... does the can have a drain?

The noise might not be valves, could be ringlands, or rings.. that's the only way you'll move that much oil through the crankcase

The endyn is notorious for filling up because it goes to the back of the block. Fill
Your motor back up. Block off the ports on the block and vent from from of valve cover. Hopefully you didn't hurt the motor running low on oil

Not if vented and routed correctly. I've now had mine for a year (B&R Fittings drain back), and couldn't be happier. I don't even have the valve cover "vented". 523whp later, and no loss in oil, no contamination and a good day over all.

It just has to be done right I was lucky I guess.

Shodan can you share what you consider correctly done. I tried many different ways to plumb this system on b20s and gave up eventually. This happened on extended pulls where it simply cannot drain back until you let off or coast etc. This was a normal sized catch container not a really large can or anything like that.

I also like that catchcans routed to the valve cover can trap the condensate water and not keep draining it down into the sump. The only thing I dislike is that it is not oem looking.

If you're filling up your catch can doing a couple pulls the motor has some major blowby
