So...My car runs great, abosolutely perfect usually.
Starts and warms up in the 24' deg weather here, good heat, great power, fun slides!!
But why the HECK do I have so much blow-by?
I have a good Cb performance breather set-up.
From oil filler, and each head to the breather, and I put a little K&N filter poking out of the breather top to vent it.
But MAN alot of oil fumes come out of that thing- enough to leave a little puddle and have some drips of oil running off the breather- on a 40 mile drive....Compresion is great, 145'ish on all 4 and I get hardly any smoke- just a puff when I rev it up and shift- I guess thats valve guides..?
But what are some guesses as to why I have so much case pressure?
cheeeeers!

Undo each line and blow into it. Yep, you heard me. Not with the engine running of course. But each line at each head, blow into it to make sure they are not plugged up. Even the one at the filler. If all are free, not sure what to tell you other than keep things "up". i.e. put a breather box 6" above the engine and have your lines go up to it. It allows oil to drain back before filling up the box and dripping out. Worked for me anyway. <_<
