    You're going to want to relocate the vent on the valve cover or you will be sending positive pressure in there.

    @Reh5108 So you just plugged the intake plenum ports and ran the valve cover ports to a catch can/atmosphere?

    Wow, I dig the purple. Is that a wrap or paint? Also, those Toyota symbols on your wheels are dying to be painted purple to match, imo. :D

    Paint. The trucks original color is mystic purple, but the clear coat was coming off horribly. I repainted it with Rustoleum Matte Electric Purple....and yes, that was spray canned. It's going to be a trail truck and I needed something I could touch up easy.

    My loft is full of crap up there too, mostly camping supplies and car parts though. :D

    I'll be sure to post the oh shit no going back moment when there's no passenger floorboard left.
