oil in the intake

[mustanglx89]

i have a bbk ssi intake and when i pulled the throttle body off there was oil laying in the bottom of the intake... any one know what could be causing that?

I would suspect blow by through the PCV valve

i figured it had something to do with the pcv valve...thanks for the help

I have the SSI also, and had oil too. How do you like yours? I started to get a whistle at idle but goes away once rpms get above a 1000 I put a vacuumguage on and no leaks, just gotta keep checking i guess.

how do you like that manifold not to step on your toes but i have heard nothing but problems with them how have they worked for you guys?

i bought the car with it on there... its ok i guess... im only keeping it on there till i build my next motor and then its going carb... i like carb alot better... i dont get a wistle... i havnt really listened for one tho... ive been pulling the throttle bodu off a lot cuz ive been having problems with the valve covers and i clean out the intake everytime and i tried changing the pcv valve and every time theres a puddle left in there... idk how to fix it

I only had alittle oil one time. I like the system, just gotta take your
time putting it together. And looks awesome too!

oh and i know with the holly intakes that they were having the same problem. They were getting oil into their intakes because of the vaccum port placement and they had stoped the problem by relocating the pcv valve to the port under the upper intake. Maybe its the same thing with your manifold.
