Default PROPER hose routing for H22 "oil catch can/breather" needed! I have searched...

I have searched the archives and found plenty on B/D series but not much for H guys. Some run off of the mani, others tap two fittings at the front of the valve cover. Not too big on tapping the block, just looking for the best/most efficient way to let the block "breathe".
Thanks....

for NA the air flow should go like this:
intake before TB -> crank case (in) ->crank case (out) -> pcv valve -> catch can -> intake mani.

thus, you just stick it in the line between the PCV valve and the intake after the TB.

I'm about to install one too. I've heard you need a diff (not sure which yet) pcv valve, and one hose goes to the head, the other to the IM. This is for NA. I'll probably put it in this weekend. I'll post pics when I'm done.

It would be for a turbo set up. All the parts through Ace Hardware come to about $25 to make it yourself. Just need to figure out how to route everything....

i have a moroso catch can (endyn). i have 2 fittings tapped into my valve cover on the intake side. both run to the catch can. i use an open filter on top of the catch can. i retain the stock pcv valve and hose. the bottom of the catch can has a petcock. this way is for "off road use only". the can is mounted near the fuse box wher my abs used to be. level below valve cover.

also this is the most efficient way to run a breather kit on an h22. the fittings are above the baffle plates in the valve cover. you need to retain the stock breather tube from the intake to the valve cover as it is very necessary for fresh air to be introduced into the crankcase.

Even thogh I am boosted? Should I loose the "filter" I have on my valve cover and route another line the charge piping?
