Lb7 Guys running vents straight to ground, are you just plugging the oil return port on the front cover?
LB7: crankcase vents

At first I just ran a hose with a bolt in it , this year I welded the hole in the front cover shut .
Mine dont and its all stock still
my motor is not stock and the factory setup was not up to par for the amount of crankcase pressure I have. I also dont like the factory hose that runs through the valley of the motor.
I'll get pics tomorrow ..... It's simple cheap and once the rings are set I'm taking it off
Teds shop floor has seen lots of oil

i ran my truck with the cover plugged for 10K or so. When i changed turbos i ran a line off each valves cover down even with the bottom of the frame. Worked good until i sold it. Mine used to drip some oil with this but not exessive amounts.
I rerouted the engine bay but still dumps out in the factor spot and ya i doubt mine see's as much pressure to just a wimpy lmm rodded lb7
have a picture of this "yup" setup
It Ts off the valve covers and goes into the top side of the PVC
The bottom goes thru a check valve 1 psi into the front cover
The top just has a crank case vent that has a hose going under the truck
Simple and cheap and works
"Yup" is a Trade Mark of Abby racing
