Okay, every time i check out my air filter and cai there is oil seeping through the breather hose and eventually into the filter.. Is this normal? Also how can i avoid this from happening? Any info on this would be great.

Thanks in advance

couple things i would check...
whens the last time the pcv valve was changed?
if its just a light coat that occurs over an extended period of time, its nothing to worry about.
usually what causes it is over the engines lifetime the cylinder bores wear bigger and the gap between the ends of the rings starts to get larger letting some of the compression past them and creating a small amount of blowby.
its really nothing to worry about

Well i dont think the pcv valve has been changed in quite some time. Maybe i should replace it.
Thanks for the words of wisdom

no problem. another thing people overlook totally is the oil seperator. with the exhaust so close to it (long tube header axacerbate it) the heat can over time cook the oil and cause coke to build up in it eventually plugging it also.
know the one on my svt needs to be changed, paints already cooked off part of it so imagine what the inside looks like.
