Kenne Bell PCV
OK guys, I am about to start working on my PCV system yet again, but this time to accomodate the new Kenne Bell setup I am working on.
Tell me if this looks like it would work, if not please feel free to chime in.
Now the elbow going to the blower has been lengthened for drawing purposes, but its a pretty simple setup.
Two -8 AN Lines going to the Catch Can Resevoir from each valve cover. One - 8AN line will be going to the elbow AFTER the Throttle Body with a 1 Way Check Valve inline. The catch can will be baffled on the inside to prevent oil from splashing onto the filter.
Maybe some of you F/I guru's could give me some insight to designing a better system if this one doesnt pan out.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi mate
All i can tell you at this stage is if you end up with a very loud
scream at idle,it will be the pcv lines.to much vac/ie pulls air through the crank seal.
not saying this setup will do that,but more fyi.hope you get it sorted,
and can move onto the good stuff.

Hahaha, well I really just need to know if this setup is going to act almost as normal as the stock PCV system did.

I am doing well Nitro. Working with Jeff, The King of KB issues, haha, to iron some bugs with my motor but its coming together. Should be pushing the 2.6 to 750rwhp soon. Of course it doesn't look like the candy you have installed, =)

You only hear the "scream" once in the video really (42 seconds through 50 seconds is where it is). Its when they cut the car off or turn it on, I cant remember. You can't hear the KB in person either. Its pretty quite actually. Even now at 18# of boost its still fairly quite. Not like on a Mustang.
