Juiced C5

venting the pcv system (hole in the oil fill cap with a hose comming off it) into the exhaust??? kinda like what the old school cars do???

If i do it ill vent it into the exhaust after the 1st 02 sensor (since i have no cats and no 2nd 02 sensor) on the pass side exhaust...

no more smell or huffing of oil fumes comming from under the hood with this method..

I have a loosley built n20 motor and I get blow by and need a way to figure out the best solution for now.

eventualy ill get a vac pump but 4 now i need alternatives.

pros & cons please

ok guys gimmie ur honest opinions...

thanks

You're talking about a crankcase evacuation system. Jegs has them and I hear that they work quite well. I'm not sure but I think that Orange actually uses that system, or one like it, so you might want to check with him.

Here's a link:

I do use that one!


Different issue that a catch can won't fix. This is coming from the underside. Not the valvetrain area.


Your right and your wrong. None of these guys run a race breather setup, so they are not familiar with how it works apparently. I do, and installed it myself. Your also wrong because through all the childish posts there are people that are loaded with good info.

1st off....IT IS NOT going to catch fire. I run it on my loose rang nitrous motor as well. Works really well for serious blow-by issues. You have to either modify your valve covers or get new ones that have the provision. There is a check valve in the system so you are not in danger of catching things on fire. Stuff comes out, nothing goes back up. Let me show you a picture of the set I have on mine and see if this is what you are talking about.



If so, they are like 30$ from just about anywhere. I know Moroso and Mr. Gasket makes them and a sponsor can probably get them for you within that price range. They come with the bungs that are to be welded to the collectors, 2 check valves, and the breather caps for the valve covers with attachment provisions. You gotta get your own hoses though.

I run a braided hose on mine hoping not to have it melt on me.


Hope that is some help to you.

jordan you might have single handedly saved this guys ideal of this site....seeing were all full of stupid answers....

remember there are no stupid answers just stupid questions...

i think it could work, and its worked for other people, but i believe you could come up with a better system

Thanks Jacob, I hope I did save our rep. It does work really well, and for the price it is better than a pump. You are already using stuff that your motor produces as well, for free. On the dyno with a 375 squeeze I have watched my braided lines start to flatten out from pressure!

Not to rip on you tainted, but...
No, it is called an EVAC system! READ UP ON IT ROOKIE!

I have dyno'd many a crazy car in the last 2 years. I think that it was because they get really warm and start to give a little. I may need to replace them.
