i noticed this loose hose lately. it may be the answer to my problems, maybe not. where does it lead to.

ive looked underneath. havnt really found anything it goes to. maybe im blind.
appreciate the help and the comments

 

goes into the catch can on the back of the block

 

hmmm well i have an LS block. wats my alternative.. can i block it off with a screw or somthing.

 

arent you also missing a hose form the crankcase?? the pcv?? i forgot to plug that back once and oil spewed everywhere...

 

you mean 96+ ls block?

 

yah.. its 97 block

 

then take the pvc line off the intake manifold and plug it.
you will want to add a few vents to the block though

 

a few vents to the block.... sounds complicated. how do i accomplish that.

 

ummm, take a drill, and a 1/2" drill bit, and make a bunch of holes.
or you could take out the plugs in the back and put fittings in them

 

haha.. well damn. not so complicating.

 

ahem, they'se called "speed holes"

 

they make the car go faster.

 

i like to use them to fill oil

 

I just ran into the same problem switching from a 94 LS block to a 98 LS block.

Exactly where would be the best place to drill these block vents and about how many?

What keeps the oil from coming out of these holes?

 

anyone?

 

maybe today?

 

Nobody reads anymore....

 

well, i read the replies and still wasn't clear on the best solution. I searched and found a couple post that made a lot more sense then the replies here. Below are some of the links which cleared this up for me.

here is a link for a catch can setup to use the pcv and a moroso catch can.

or the endyn kit which is expsesive but pretty much foolproof:

hope this helps any one that was still wondering.
