Why is it necessary to remove the factory CCV when installing valve covers?

1. Reduce Maintenance Requirements
   Removing the CCV filter eliminates the need for regular filter replacements or cleaning, simplifying vehicle maintenance.

2. Improve Crankcase Pressure Management

   • Issue with the stock system: The factory CCV system restricts crankcase ventilation, which can cause excessive pressure during heavy-duty or high-performance use, increasing the risk of oil leaks.
   • Solution: Aftermarket valve covers with atmospheric venting directly relieve crankcase pressure and reduce internal buildup.

3. Prevent Oil Vapor Contamination

   • Stock system drawback: The factory CCV system reintroduces crankcase vapors into the intake system, leading to carbon buildup in the EGR cooler and intake manifold, which reduces engine efficiency.
   • Benefit of removal: By venting crankcase vapors to the atmosphere, the intake system remains clean, improving combustion efficiency.

4. Enhance Engine Performance

   • Stock system limitation: An intake system contaminated by oil vapors can reduce engine stability, especially in high-performance or modified applications.
   • Aftermarket advantage: Atmospheric venting systems are better suited for modified engines, maintaining consistent performance under high loads.
