We tried it on the dyno with vented vs unvented valve covers and there was a difference of about 20 HP. What I really like is the engine compartment stays really clean compared to the times I had remote valve cover breathers with baffles etc. The only time oil gets out of this thing is when it is not running, then it leaks like an old Harley. |
Well that just shows that being out of commission for a few years will do for you....Thanks for the info on the Daily pump....and it appears to be smaller...
We tried sealing up the motor before and it never worked....and I did it like you did, by closing up everything but the dry sump tank....should of looked at a different pump......Thanks again and will get on it....
