I wouldnt worry much could be carbon build up have you seafoamed it through the vaccum line on your brake booster that might just be your problem too


But for better insurance spend 900 on another 6.0 and drive it till it blows

put catch can on. not sure if its routed right, just took a hose from the pcv to the can then to intake and put a breather on the passenger side and left the line from the passenger side valve cover to the intake alone. Also decided to go with a smaller cam since i dont have any mods to support the one i got. maybe tsp 224R or 220R, different springs, and a 278mm circle d.
