1. This mod reduces oil consumption from 1 qt/300 miles to zero!

2. This mod avoids the problem of the CCV freezing, causing hydrolock.
BTW, the hydrolock caused by oil is usually reversible, i.e., engine not destroyed, simply b/c the amount of liquid ingested is not as bad as let's say driving through water and the engine sucks in LARGE amount of water.

Anyway, I highly recommend the CCV Mod.
Agreed....do the mod, especially if in the north. My car was a California car so had never even been thought of as something to do. Unfortunately, my engine detonated and cracked the block, so a simple reversal was not in the cards, tried it and got it to run but that was about it.
