Yeah basically but so far we have gotten all husky replacements. Its for all of ontario so I doubt we will be lucky enough to have a petro canada implement 94 which sucks!

BTW the engine looks real nice, your going to go insane in the break in period...but at least you won't be boosted. I've been driving around like a grampa until I can get my wideband hooked up and do some datalogging to make sure i'm running a safe enough tune...its KILLING ME!

But i'd rather go crazy than go kaboom.

Personally I just used a Turbo Stang PCV and ran it to the IM, but running it to ground should be ok, keep an eye on your oil levels because sometimes it may dump a good amount of oil out.

I've only had to run a catch can on my valve cover breathers, those things always puked tons of oil out more than I wish to dump on the road.

My old turbo setup I ran dual catch cans, one on PCV line and one on breather, the only one with significant oil in it was the valve breather. But I had a slightly better oil baffle than the block off plate from Jay Racing.
