ccv idea
do you think that the ccv hose could be run out the ex tip via welded bung and hose clamp ???
right now i have it ran out the bottom of the truck under transfer case, no big deal but i live on a dirt road and it blows dust.

IIRC this has been done. You have to install the bung at a certain angle to keep the fumes exiting the exhaust. Also IIRC it was recommended by some not to do it, and some liked it.

Dave, I think the concern is the exhaust will pressure up the Crank Case, and start leaking at some seals. This has been tried before and some have done test on this.

I don't know about that, but that would be a long hose to try to keep any dips out of it. Heck, let us know how it does.

You don't need the hose running straight down. Just have it aimed at the back of the truck. Let us know how it works out for you.

Yes, Roland did and when we took his IC pipes off, he still had oil in them.
