Default got the car running!

Ok so i have been trying to put a novi 2000 on my mustang since the beginning of january, and due to school and constantly being sick this last month its taken me some time,
Good news is i finally got the car to run decently,
Now i have a question for you supercharger guys, do you leave the pipe running from the oil filler on the valve cover to the throttle body connected?

and you have no videos???

disconnect the line going from the tb to the valve cover. if you leave it connected boost air will go through it into the crank case and cause oil leaks out the rear main. cap off the tb but leave the hole on the valve cover open if you still have the pcv hooked up

I agree with the ^^^^ ...cap off and get a K&N type breather for the oil cap!

This may help ya if I haven't sent it to ya already. For a procharger but I'm sure it's the same for all.
