    Yes that is the issue with this setup right there and why there are baffles in Valve covers that allow venting but block huge amounts of oil from exiting through threw this type of setup. In the end he had to pull the valve cover and put a blocker of some sort in. Noticed he did not recommend it as well in the end.

    90% of crank case pressure comes from blow excaping passed the piston rings. You are far better off venting from the back of the block. Just a solid tip my guy.

    Just a suggestion. Install a 4P ported oil pump 👍

    So you installed the scavenger oil cap catch can and block all the ports for crank breather and all the hoses that is connected to the breather tank?

    blocking the bottom crank case breather is retarded.. dont do this..
    you need to vent the block pressure into a catch can.. but remember kids.. most catch cans have a port for fumes coming in and an Exit port for fumes (cleaner fumes) coming out.
    So unless this guy installed a 4 port catch can... (highly doubt it) he is Venting the the head to an exit port on that catch can. Again... dont do this..
    buy 2 catch cans or a larger 4 port one and use an intake port for the head and one for the block. You can block off the exit ports if you are running a filter on top.. but remember... you will get things dirty on your engine bay over time because of that filter... (block filter and run hoses to the bottom of the car and never look back.

      I've been running this setup for 2 seasons now. Over 25 track days and I have yet had to empty the catch can. More than one way to skin a cat

      It worked perfectly, I've done a couple autocross and track days and it barely fills the catch can at all. Well worth making that

    Your crank case system is not right pressure is below cylinder head valve cover vents are just for show need x2 AN10 on engine block
