Massive oil leaks.

I tend to agree. Lots of engines never ran a PCV system. They were OCV, or open crankcase ventilation, with a pipe running usually out of the intake valley straight to under the car and venting right onto the road.

The only reason I brought up the PCV is because since it's a street car, he may have inspections, plus, the PCV does aid in evacuating the crankcase while putting a positive vacuum against the rings. But it's certainly not a requirement. Engines were around what.....50 plus years without them? Using a PCV system works best for me, so that's the only reason I even brought it up.

Something more than a lack of PVC or proper venting is the cause. Maybe too much blowby, maybe a leak, maybe both, but something is certainly wrong.


I don't run a PCV. 410 stroker with a 200 hit of NOS. I never popped my gaskets and I have ran it with 1 breather as well.

Figured you wouldn't check anything. I have never heard of anyone who would continue to drive their car with oil leaking everywhere all over the headers in the wheels under the car and all over the place. It did not get like that in 10 seconds it took some effort. I bet it looked like a choo choo train going down the road and smelled like an oil refnary and you just kept going like the energizer bunny. The problem is installation & operator error if I've ever seen it. :violent1:

You would rather throw someone under a bus than actually figure out what it is. :wack:
