Throwing oil out of valve covers

[Clois Harlan]

To answer a few questions:

I am running a Canton oil pan #15-720 which includes an 8 quart "System" capacity and has baffles and trap doors to contain the oil while cornering as well as a windage tray and a High Volume oil pump.

I am running restrictors in my aluminium heads and will be decreasing the size to .075.

I may install a PCV valve with a Tee and test it in a couple of weeks at Hallett. The truth is when I dyno'd my car I gained about 8 hp when I removed the PCV. I am also thinking of making a taller filler with a filter on top and a line going back to a puke tank or routing the line to the other side valve cover. Just thinking about this for now.

Ernie, I pulled off the 2X4 set-up a couple weeks before Mid-America and replaced it with a Ford Aluminium dual plane medium riser and a 750 Mighty Demon Carb. Performed Excellent last weekend outside of running just a wee bit rich.

Rick,

Thank you very much for the compliment. You're no slouch on the track either and you have a lot less maintenance issues than I do.

But the truth is I had rather be in my garage than watching the final issue of Friends, The Bachelor, Frasier or what ever. However, I kind of like ALIAS.

Thanks guys keep the ideas coming.
