Question PCV system nonexistent?

I have a 98 civic ex with a 99 civic si B16A2 engine in it and there is no PCV system anywhere at all. All there is to vent crankcase pressure is a breather hose from the valve cover to the intake. What do I need to add a PCV system? Is it just a PCV valve in the breather line? I have had some problems with slight excess crankcase pressure before.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

It is there, just not on top.




It is on the back side of the block.
