Definitely vent! Also make sure you use the factory check-valve, it keeps the crankcase from building too much pressure, which will help prevent oil leaks.

QUOTE(gothspeed @ Feb 17 2011, 12:41 PM)  Definitely vent! Also make sure you use the factory check-valve... Only when the factory injection is retained should the stock valve be left intact. We gut the PCV valve on every breather installation, but still use it as a connection point in most cases. The stock valve is a restriction to good ventilation. |
