Has any one toyed with the idea of running the crank case gas back into the exhaust to save the oil clogging up the inter cooleretc ?

I think back pressure would be an issue Timbo, plus blocking up the exhaust with oily soot!!
But ya never know eh??

It'd be illegal, you may as well just vent it to atmosphere if you were going to do that.
For what it's worth, the SD33 's vere vented to the atmosphere and never had dirty inlet manifolds, they would drip a little oil tho.

Thx Ferret, would the one way valve in the breather stop any back pressure entering the engine? they seem to work on petrol engines http://www.jegs.com/i/Moroso/710/25900/10002/-1
cheers
I drop mine to atmosphere the one on the gq drops a minute amont of oil but drops it onto the slip joint of the front tailshaft. You would have to be careful as while the engine is revving and forcing gas out this will create a vacuum in your crankcase. I would just drop it to atmosphere no oil in intakes etc and is very easy to do.
