    Crankcase breather question

    Hey at least i had enough knowledge and common sense to hook my pcv system up right, i know the purpose of it. Just never really got into the specifics of how exactly the pcv valve operates. They should of put that one on joe dirt. Hows a rainbow made? How does the sun set? How does a pcv valve...

    Crankcase breather question

    lol thats hilarious, may hook it up to the shop vac. Jk. I know its a simple concept, makes a lot more sense now that i know the orfice controls the flow. I honestly thought there was just that one valve in there.

    Crankcase breather question

    So weird question. I have a vacuum brake bleeder pump. If i were to hook the pump to the pcv valve, put my finger over the bottom hole of the pcv valve and pull a vacuum on the pcv valve, i could take my finger off then slowly release the pressure a little at a time while watching the gauge and...

    Crankcase breather question

    thank you! That makes so much more sense, so when you use your mouth to try and apply a suction through one your not moving the orfice but rather the backfire valve. I was having a hard time understanding how it would flow with less vacuum when i was assuming the backfire valve was what is...

    Crankcase breather question

    Ok guys forgive me but i still am confusing myself, ive reread the thread about 3 times. Im still having a hard time understanding the transitional value for the pcv vacuum. So for example if i had 10-12 inhg of vacuum at idle and had a pcv with a transition in the 8 inhg range wouldnt the pcv...

    Drum brake weights interfering with cragar ss wheels

    Most of the aftermarket drums for newer cars and trucks have flat spots milled in the drum in a spot which i assume is to balance, you shouldnt have a issue removing the weights.

    Anyone use billet specialties valve cover breathers, pcv valves or other stuff?

    I searched and only have seen them mentioned in a few posts but has anyone had any experience with billet specialties products wether it be air cleaners, valve covers or radiator caps? Hows the quality? I have a ball nilled billet breather and pcv ordered, i think they will match my aluminum...

    Oil

    Im running 15W-50 mobil one full synthetic. Engine builder recommended it, from what i remember he opened up the oil passages some and im sure he knew what the tolerances were. Having the engine builder tell you what to run is a good basis to go off of. But if you cant talk to the engine builder...

    Never mind, i just remembered my edelbrock carb has a separate manifold vacuum port. Day has been too long lol

    Crankcase breather question

    Also how does the pcv valve affect the idle air mixture adjustment? I though you disconnect the pcv from the carb when you put the vacuum gauge on anyway. I know how they work just always thought they were opened or closed, you would think with less vacuum at higher rpm they would close and be...

    Crankcase breather question

    I mean its a decently aggressive street engine. 9.5:1 comp 108 duration i believe, dont quite remember the full cam specs but its a lunati voodoo cam. this is the first time i looked under the pass side breather, pretty clean. Some light oil residue but i guess thats to be expected. This...

    Crankcase breather question

    Ahhh makes sense, so i know theres no need to re invent the wheel with the crazy adjustable pcv valve but how do you know which pcv valve is right? I dont remember which one i got but its a cheapy off of the help section at autozone, may be a dorman not sure

    Crankcase breather question

    i was just curious as the one i have now i can suck the smallest amount with my mouth and it causes the valve to come up, but no matter how hard i try i dont see how its more restricted with higher vacuum, i thought they were either open or closed
