Well i got the car back after the dealership replacing 12 lifters. Well now the engine is building extreme amounts of pressure in the block. Like if i leave the dip stick in the car will start screaming cause the pressure is escapeing from somewhere else. If i remove the dipstick after like 2 sec of ideling pressure whoshes out of it the same thing goes for the oil fill cap. Does anyone have any ideas. Someone said maybe a vaccum line. But i would like to fix myslef if it doesnt cost anything cause everytime i go to the dealer it comes back worse.

If you are it is pressure building up. I would change the PCV valve. That is what its job is, to relieve pressure that has built up. It should be able to handle the job unless you have some serious blowby, if your rings are shot. If replacing the PCV doesn't help, I would run a compression check.

the pcv goes back into the intake correct? well they more or less i belive blocked off this passage from what i understand
(he said ross made a TB Gasget)
would putting the TB spacer on, block the PCV or is there a hole to allow for it?
how else would you vent the crank?

The PCV connects the crankcase to the intake(throttle body). If you have a spacer or something that doesn't have that cutout, then that is your problem. You can either cut that hole out, or go with this.
I had to get one when I installed my LS1 TB. There was no feasible way to make my PCV work since the opening on the LS1 TB is totally different than my GTP TB. I didn't buy it from ZZP, believe it or not, I got it from the rice section at autozone! [img]smile.gif[/img] ZZP didn't sale them. I believe it is the same one I bought, they look exactly alike. I had to get a thick O-ring to make it fit better though. Not sure if the ZZP one fits or not.
