Default Additional evacuation port?? How about engine oil filler cap.. (Pics inside)

total cost: $5-6 dollars
parts: oil cap + 3/8" fitting and a hose and metal hose clamp
so.. why not give it a shot.

This is vtec b series where breather is right next to oil filler cap, i tried this for 2-3 miles, but gotta feeling i may experience some oil loss because of location. i dont have any oil coming out from side port. this fitting is straight through, if it had 90 degree turn underneath the cap, it might not collect as much oil.. there was no oil spitting out at idle though..



my original plan is to add 2 extra ports on exhaust part of valve cover..

that will work just fine but it will need to be as big as posible somewhere in the 3/4" range

z10 sells this really nice banjo setup. screws right into were the oil cap used to go then gives you a nice -12 sized fitting to run w/e you want

haha.. i thought people would laugh at this idea.. but i guess it does the job..

say if i run oil cap and factory fitting, would that be enough so i won't need to drill for additional ports?
