I am having a problem with too much crankcase pressure and I had a PCV system in place. It kept blow oil pan gaskets. Well after talking to a few racer at the track,and speed shop. They all said the samething. Run breather from your valve cover to your exhaust. The car is a track only car. I was wondering if anyone as done it? I found a few kits on Summit for 40.00 and at the bottom it says wont work with mufflers. Well my exhaust system in Hooker Super Comps to 3 inch straight piping to flow master mufflers and dumps right before the rear nothing serious. Will it still work? Please help.

I have done a lot of research on it and its just mixed feelings about it.
Thanks

I say get a vacuum pump for it. Is the engine old, the rings bad, any F.I.?
