Default Do they make a crank case filter for the LS1?

Thought I had a leaky head gasket, but my tuner said it looks like back pressure is blowng oil out through the oil spout and onto my fuel rail covers. I have a friend who has an ATI on his 95 impala and he has one for it.

Your PCV system should be taking care of that pressure. And yes, there are filters that fit our valvecover. Check thunderracing.com out,I know they have one on their page.

Not an expert on SC but I believe you need a check valve in your PCV plumbing if your have a SC. Some one more knowledgeable chim in.
