I have mine hooked up as DDM first suggested, replacing the check valve. Works okay although the OCC hasn't got enough oil to show up in the sight glass yet. As it's not a daily driver, I don't expect that I'll find a lot.
Just trying to do my part...

I am in the same boat as Bob.
It has not gotten up to the sight tube, but I have changed the intake twice and redid the piping on the IC Pipes to test a Boost leak [Which I found was the BOV O-Ring on the Flange]
and I have no oil in any locations.

A good catch can that is sized appropriately (like DDM's piece) should eliminate all blow by unless you have permanent engine damage.


(worn rings, damaged cylinder walls/damaged pistons etc)
