Default anybody heard of this instead of a vented catch can set up?

was talking to a guy and he said if you run a hose from the valve cover fitting to a fitting on your down pipe it will pull a vacume from the motor. getting rid of crank case pressure resulting in more power over a catch can setup ?

some older cars use that setup,and some dragster type. it will work as long as ur not pulling oil out with the vapors.

Yup.


I wouldnt suggest it, if your pouring oil out like crazy, but it will work nicely if you dont have oil problems.

But, the problems with check valves, etc etc etc...Who knows?

what if you run a catch can and instead of a filter run the hose on topof the catch can to pull vacume from the tank and then still have the oil drain back?
