Crossover tubes
Don't see a lot of crossover tubes in engines on this site. Was curious as to how your cars' crankcase "breathes" while going through the corners without oil sloshing out the stock breather vents. Are the stock PCV valves good enough? Like to see some setups especially on older model V8's.
Thanks |
Mine is setup for a remote breather...........

You got any pics? And would you fill oil through this remote breather? I'm curious as all I've ever seen are the twin breather/filler setup tubes exiting the valve covers in front of the intake. Thanks again.

X2 on the pics of a remote breather Anthony. I have been thinking about just that and would like to steal your hard work:D

It's nothing that hasn't been done many times before...here's the best pics I could find. Sorry, but I haven't finished the plumbing yet.
Here's the Canton Racing breather on the firewall. http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e.../MYDC03171.jpg And here's a shot of the valve covers with the -AN fittings welded as well as the oil filler bung/cap. Basically there will be braided lines going from the valve covers to the remote breather. http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e.../IMG_03901.jpg |
I just finished redoing the oil / breather / pcv system on my Nomad... I was tired of oil dripping out the SINGLE breather I had... and the "kinda" PCV I made up. Since there's little vacuum to be had on an 8 stack EFI... there's no real good way to do a proper PCV... So I just gave the crankcase lots of room to breathe. Added two weld in breathers -- a weld in oil fill bung -- and a breather/catch can down in front of the radiator (it's still above the pan!) -- I plumbed the breather catch can to a 3/8 NPT Male to -10 AN fitting in the fuel pump block off plate...
