now that you have removed your emissions what did you do with the line where the oil fill tube is? just wondering.

you can do 3 things.

1. cap it off. this is very bad and your car will smoke like a bitch and soon ruin the engine.

2. vent it to air with a mini filter. chances are it'll spill / shoot oil all over your engine bay.

3. run a line from the nipple to the "oil catch can".. which would then collect the oil instead of spraying it all over your engine bay.
