    pcv valve

    Do you guys stil use the pcv valve ?
    I wonder if it can block the pressure of the supercharger blowing air into the valve cover under boost.

    Always use a PCV or use a open valve cover element or you will blow out your engine seals. If you have that much pressure in your engine then I would check that the PCV is working or you have a lot of Blow-By past the pistons.

    Yup, On 5.0, we just disconnect the supply side at the throttle body and let engine vac at the back do the pullin' for us. Totally adequate and no blowing out the dipstick tube or popping vc seals.
