Breather to PCV

70DusterBob said
From the sounds of that article, I don't really need to have a breather, or can use one that just vents the crank case on the passenger side of the engine. Am I right? I thought the engine needed to vent the blow-by to prevent damaging seals and such??

Seems to me that the breather to breather vent is a constant one while the PCV is variable.

I get my car back tomorrow. It has 30 miles on the engine. It is a high performance 408. I don't want to damage it, but if the breather doesn't "NEED" to go into the air filter breather, please someone let me know! I have tried Edelbrock, Summit, Ebay, Year One, Classic Industries, and Jegs. No one has the right elbow for mopar SB.

Thanks

Good grief. Do it like you want to. Leaving the breather disconnected from the air cleaner means you'll have a buildup of crankcase oil residue on the passenger side valve cover in short order. That's why you run a closed breather with a hose to the air cleaner like you've been told multiple times and refuse to understand. So have at it.
