Don't use the radium PCV valve for your fancy AN valve cover setup. Avoid being an idiot like myself.
I'm not saying that it's a terrible valve. It's just not 'tuned' for our engines. It flowed way too much, which caused it too fill up my catch can after only 10 miles of driving...
Reverted back to a gtx valve, but with a one way check valve. Also tapped the breather, 3/8 npt to AN10 to my breather box/catch can.
Everything is now working smoothly, not filling up my catch can and seems like I also alleviated my positive crank pressure issues.
Should of just kept things simple, oh well 🤷
