Breathers for vortech

[robmustang201528]

Never had a supercharged car before maybe dumb questions but I dont want any BS to happen to my motor because i didn't spend a couple extra $ to keep it from blowing up lol . Soo my question is do I need breathers on the driver side and the passenger side? Also do I need a oil cap breather as well?

Well if you are going the breather route over a catch can you should add a breather to each side of the motor. On the passenger side there is a PCV - I gutted mine so that both sides would flow equally. I think there is some differences of opinion when gutting the PCV....I did it and have no known issues for the last 10k miles.

I was thinking about getting this (https://www.c-f-m.com/performanceparts/pc/Valve-Cover-Breathers-c744.htm) and keeping my upr oil separator

Not sure how they would work together. Looks like a quality breather set-up though.

I dont know if this one is better then the UPR valve made very simular to this one,but i took the upr one off brcause it was spaying oil all down the side of my motor.After one pass at the track i had smoke rolling out from under my hood from that piece of crap,and it was $70 dollars to boot.
