Misting Oil

Post by darzoom »

I think we re all aware of the issue the way a VW beats oil to disappear from the engine as mist. With that, I plan on putting a vent box in the engine compartment and vent from the oil fill tower, carb and value covers. What I am struggling with is the oil return from the collection box to the crankcase. Has anyone added a crankcase vent box and a return for the oil that mists into the collector? If so, where did you add the oil return to the crankcase? I have seen a fitting added where the fuel pump is as that is (suppose) to be a part of the crank case that is non-pressurized.
