CCV Mod ?'s

Has anybody ever determined if there is really any benefit of this on a non IC motor, other then cleanliness? Also what are you using/ do to take care of the hole in the intake tube where it used to plug into?

Well I did mine because the orange intake tube was cracked and gota new updated black one . I put a piece of 4" exhaust pipe between new black intake and rubber flexy intake to air filter. If you put an intercooler on your truck it keeps oil buildup outta there but other than that...... international vents theirs into the atmosphere.

I just cut a small piece of aluminum, drilled a hole to use the stock screw and coated it with Ford "Grey RTV" and screwed it in place. No problems.

I think that the main reason for the CCV Mod is to keep the oil mist out of the ducting and turbo.
