Im seeing WAY too much smoke / vapor from my catch can, and I'm beginning to think I may have the setup incorrect.

I have a B&R catch can connected to the front of the valve cover with 2 -10 AN lines, with no drain. I used the B&R plug to delete the pcv valve and box, and plugged it off with the B&R fitting. The nipple that connects to the top of of the pcv box is now ran to a secondary catch can. The nipple from the valve cover is also ran to the secondary catch can

So simple version:

1 catch can to valve cover nipple, and nipple coming out of back of block

Other catch can to valve cover, 2 -10 AN lines

Catch can box removed and plugged. PCV valve system completely removed

ALOT of smoke coming out of the catch can connected to valve cover on idle.


Is it a bad setup?

 

Turbocharged setup

halp?

 

sounds correct... post a picture as well....

smoking could mean you have a lot of blow by....

 

^ X2 the catchan isnt a cure all for blow by problems.I ran an endyne kit with no drain for a while on 12 psi with no problems.The motor is what dictates how bad it will smoke assuming everything is connected correctly.Which B&R can do you have the smaller one or the battery sized one and if its the smaller one if it has three ports then two should be connected to the valve cover and the lower third spot should go to one of the removable plugs on the back of the block.

 

I just picked up a valve cover for my B18C1 with 2 welded fittings in the front -10 lines that connect to a moroso catch can with a filter on the top and a drain on the bottom. What port on the block does the catch can drain into? and where does the other vent tube on the back of the valve cover goto?
Thanks

those fittings can be found @ go-autoworks.com for a nice chuck of change... but theyre available regardless.
