Been having some issues with my pcv hose I plugged it to my upper intake n now I smoke when started from exhaust and when I had it hooked up to breather cap it will drop oil from my cap to the headers and smoke will come from that dont know what to do know ill post some pics up to show how I have it now but you kinda get the idea lol but question is can I plug that hose that comes from lower intake somehow?

If you delete the PCV system you'll have to put a catch can on your car.

if it's throwing that much oil it's about time for some new rings / valve job depending which is worn out, imo

PCV = Positive Crank Ventilation. The combustion gasses that escape passed your rings and slip into the crank case, create a pressure and will blow out your gaskets fast.

I deleted mine, and use two breathers. One breather was welded to the front of the passenger valve cover. This allows plenty of ventilation, and no oil to seep out.

delete the hose that is running to the TB. With two breathers you shouldnt need a PCV, and you should not run both PCV and breathers.
