I'm going to run the crankcase breather off the block to a catch can with a PCV valve in it, which will then go to the intake manifold. The -10 fitting will also go to a catch can and then back to the intake.

I don't like the idea of the PCV dumping straight to the intake manifold without a catch can.

This way while the car is at cruise and the PCV is open, it's pulling air through the air filter, down through the valvecover, into the crankcase, to the catch can, and then to the intake manifold. I'm also going to drain both cans to the sump. Hopefully this will mean zero oil mist in the intake system. The car will be run mostly on E85, so condensation/fuel is a concern in the catch cans.

Definitely an experiment, but I think it should be very high-flowing and very clean. Worse comes to worse I pull the plugs and run it differently. I'll be reinstalling the baffles with M4 screws and lots of loctite.
