Crankcase breather question
What I do wonder is , what effect my 6 pack scoop will have on the pass. side vent/breather to air cleaner deal. Any thots on that ??
That's a good question, and IDK the answer. It took me several readings to figure out what you might be getting at. I guess yur thinking the scoop might pressurize the system at speed, which would then dick with the normal pressure venting at higher rpms. Am I on the right track? I think that's a valid thot and as I was thinking about it, an idea came to me; How about just Teeing a dump hose into that line down below the level of a valve cover. This would allow the system to work normally most of the time, yet as the pressure in the scoop rises with speed, simultaneously with increased blow-by from rpm , they just both together dump thru the Tee. Of course you might want to figure out a good place to dump it so it don't make a mess.
Or I suppose you could run a pressure vent elsewhere...... maybe jam it into the exhaust system. That would take care of the mess.....
Those pan e-vacs really work. I ran two of them with a working PCV on my 292/292/108 11.3 Scr combo, and never even gave it a thought, as to they might be fighting eachother at times. But for me, they worked so good, they pumped a lotta oil into my mufflers.
Course it just might be that CC pressure is higher than scoop pressure.... and then it would just be business as usual for the PCV system.
I suppose you could just measure the CC pressure at speed, with and without the hose connected to the air cleaner, and see what happens. Do not let the pressure in the cc rise above 4 psi, I have blown the camplug out one time.
