I'm not sure I agree with that statement unless you could explain why. The engine's crank case is pressurized and logic has it that the internal pressures are the same on both banks. So what could explain only the passenger side's PCV valve getting or passing more of it?

On a related note - anybody seen / tried this Envalve device which seems to address the same problem but does not have a catch can to empty?

Speedking, I'm only going off what JLT tells me. Someone explained it in detail before and it made sense.

Ask one of the JLT reps on the board.

The 4.6L 3V's had more pressure on the driver's side, which is where I ran my oil seperator on my '07 after adding a supercharger. The oil seperator helped A LOT! I don't understand why the 5.0L would be the opposite side, though?

Well I bought the passenger side. This will mainly be a daily driver. I may take it to the 1/4 mile a time or two.
I may try to run it on a road course sometime.
If I need the drivers side I will get it however they said unless I tracked the car all the time I didn't need it.
For the foreseeable future I will only be NA.

If both sides were or are needed it would be nice to have a package deal.

I base it off the fact that the vendor tested it an assures us a second one is not needed unless tracking the car. If you think about it they could easily sell twice as many by saying you needed both even if you really didn't. Since they are willing to say yes you only need one, I trust them to have done the testing right.

Depending on how you drive, the RPM range your in and the amount of WOT you WILL get oil on the driver side. I've logged over 2000 miles on the street with very little oil getting in the driver side separator, but I did 30 minutes at VIR (road course) and filled it to the top

High RPM and off throttle will cause a draw on the driver side and suck oil into the intake.

All cars act the same.

Thanks
Jay

I haven't seen a 5.0 close up so I am speaking to the 4.6 3V. You are correct there is x amount of crank case pressure regardless of banks. But the flow is controlled by the size of the tubes. The PCV tube (open - no actual valve) on the drivers bank is larger whereas the vent tube on the passenger is very small. Gases - like water - follow the path of least resistance.

It doesn't have more pressure but air flow is controlled by the size of the tubes as I mentioned above. As to placement, no real rhyme or reason - the 4.6 2V's has the larger PCV tube on the passenger side as I was told by 01 Bullitt owners.

After reading this thread you bought a drivers side and only a drivers side?

Unless you road race it, the driver side will be pretty dry for some time.
I do get a mist in normal street driving, but not like the passanger side

I think they're always on back order because of using Ford OEM hoses. They get regular shipments in, go ahead and order, you'll see it pretty quickly still.

Yes, we go through them like water, but make constently.

Best to place the order and get on the list. We have 100 getting finished Monday and all are sold, then another 100 will be done the next week and almost all are sold from that batch too.

We do not charge until they ship.

Thanks
Jay
