Anyone fitted an oil catch tank/oil air separator in their DC5?
mounting the oil catch line to the valve cover /intake is NOT the proper way...
it needs to be mounted to the PCV...which is on the water pump housing



here its is mounted to the PCV & to the valve cover

edit - 3/8" =.38" 10mm =.39" & -6an hose equals 3/8"

i was told bu 2 different sources you DON'T need a vacuum...infact the best way to do this would be with a baffled oil catch can with a pcv valve on it connected to a breather (remove/relocate OEM stock pcv valve)....with NO other line (running to IM)
works better if you eliminate the IM connect & run a open system thereby not introducing blow-by vapors back into the IM
I have just verified this with SEVERAL people including well know engine builders
EDIT - someone very experienced w/K motors told me to go closed loop with the connection to the IM
