PCV system actually helps with ring seal. It doesn't rob any power, has no deleterious affects on performance, there is zero reason to remove it, and put in place a system that vents to the atmosphere......

 

Would a catch can be a bad idea? As the system seems to bleed a lot of oil vapors through

 

Catch cans are fine

 

Thank you. I didn't want to go through the trouble of repairing the plenum when I do to have an overactive PCV cause other issues and dirty up my new plenum

 

Get a PCV valve from the dealer, they are actually the correct flow rate. Not always the case with the aftermarket fellers.

 

Alright. I'll look into that.

 

Anyone know about how much dodge sells harmonic balances for for the 97 318?

 

Seriously? Now you tell me! I will get one from a dealer, I have a poop AM one in right now. How important is it to replace the grommet?

 

If it still seals good, don't worry about it.

 

Is their a write up for a rear main change without dropping the tranny? I heard it's possible with these motors?
Also what's the proper way to run seafoam through these trucks? I need a way to clean the valves and such without pulling the heads after the plenum blew
