Yeah, we mentioned that at the meet Nate.

I'm not a fan of it as much more than a temporary cure though, the "O" ring I mean. I can't shake the feeling that if your crankcase is under that much pressure, this pressure could be a cause of forcing oil through the front engine seals and the cam cover gaskets. You know the ones I mean, the leaks that keep dripping on the exhaust.

To me it would seem to be better to keep the crankcase pressure at a reasonable level rather than just masking a symptom such as the dipstick popping.
