Hey man that great! I appreciate that. So the T going to the pcv valve is this supposed to create a vacume source correct?

Edit: Also could you let me know where you got your fittings, and where to buy the bungs at? Thank!

I got rid of the Pcv valve and put a piece of hose into the rubber grommet in the lower intake, it's not a vacume source it's another place to evacuate crankcase pressure. I bought valve cover with AN stuff already welded on but I know you can get all the welded on bungs and stuff at Summit Racing.

Worked up some needed maintenance last night. Fixed my oil feed turbo leak, also found unkown leak I have been fighting since I bought this thing.... kept finding oil spots hear and their after long sittings.. Replaced the rear main but the problem continued. Took a closer look behind my lower intake and found a lot of oil.

new gaskets are going in tonight....

Took the car down our local 1/8 last night. Was a cold night I think the temps got down to like 48 degrees and it shows in my 60ft times lol. I'll upload my timeslips later today too. I wasnt launching at the gate to help preserve my transmission, and ofcourse traction was a little bit of an issue due to the cold but here are my times.
1st run
7.7034 @ 99.65 60ft: 1.9172

2nd run

7.7640 @ 100.04 60ft: 2.0013

3rd run

7.6652 @ 97.87 60ft: 1.9362

All in all im happy with what she did. All runs were done on my street tires. Was fun as hell and cant wait for next year when I have time to tweak with the car some more. I have vids of these runs and can post too.
