      Yep, that's correct on both accounts Christian and Steve.



      Many people have switched to the LS6 PCV system which requires an LS6 valley cover. This helped in oil consumption through the TB. However, I know people that have done this swap and it hasn't helped enough. Running a catch can isn't a bad idea if you are sucking oil up through the TB. Do a search on LS1Tech.com and there is a company making quality catch cans that would look right at home on a detailed engine. I can't remember their name though.

      Also make sure you change your sprockets out Tony and anyone else doing a build. You will find a lot of people only swapping to the LS2 chain and keeping their old sprockets becuase they see no wear on the sprockets This is ludicrous. The whole setup is $90. Just because you don't see any wear on the sprockets doesn't mean it's not there.

      VERY VERY valid point.... alot of problems with people reusing sprockets.
