Damn another mod I was lazy about doing. With the 216/225 Cam the Idle is lopey and depletes my vacuum at engine start up and at slow speed for my brakes. I decided to do the PCV delete and the delete the tube from the drivers side valve cover to the CAI. I havemore vacuum now and my car shakes have as much at idle. Before the mod The Cams lopey idle and having a moment where both the Intake and exhaust valve was open at the samew time gives a pulsating vacuum and causes the PCV to rapidly open and close causing the car to shake more than necessary.
Damn why did I wait a year to do it ???
Cost
2 ea APC chrome valve cover breather filters 17.50

Just do it at the same time it will be easier to get to all the plumbing since it will be all off.

Oh you were right about PCV (Not PVC) The word PCV stands for POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION!!
Just a mixup in letters and having senior moments

Hey, I still need to do this mod myself Corey. I need to talk to you tonight about it. I'm sure it would help my performance a little more too. My vaccum at idle when I first start the car is 12 hg/in, and after I drive for about 10 minutes, it's up to 14 hg/in. What's yours at?
