YEEEEHAAAHH!!!! and UH-OH
Last night I installed, tuned and test drove my new Mighty Demon carb.
WOW What a performance increase! I must have gained a whole bucnch of power. Not knowing how to quantify it other than the pucker factor went from a 4 to a 10! Problem: After the run, I was blowing oil out of my rocker cover breathers. Anybody got any ideas? BigMike |
Maybe you should try the set-up I have (see pic below). Cobra Valley http://performanceunlimited.com/cobravalley sells the billet breathers and catch tank. Just add some steel braided hose and fittings for a clean appearance. Connect the passenger side to the vacuum fitting on the rear of the carb, and the driver side goes to the tank (mounted on the front cross-member). The tank has a filter breather top to remove any vacuum effects. I never get one drop of oil on the valve covers with this set-up, and I'm running a Mighty Demon, too (great carb!).

Pressure
Mike,
You are building pressure in the engine, do you have a PCV hooked up to that new carb? if not you'll need to install baffles in the valve covers as the pressure will be forced out there along with some oil. Perry.:cool: |
