Just about ready to crank her over, does it matter how the breather lines are plumbed?
For example, should the lines from each head come together and then go to the catch tank while the line from the oil tower joins at the end of that run? Or is it OK if the right head breather line connects T's to the oil tower breather and then get t'd to the left head breather and to the tank? After this I just have to bolt up the header and countdown. |

the heads "suck" at higher rpms and the oil-filler neck "blows" ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
soo, yes, i think it matters. i have the oil filler line go straight to the breather box as well as the 2 head vents. that way, i get a nice flow ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Andy Attached image(s)

Here's a couple pics of my rig. The catch tank is in the trunk and plumbed back thru the firewall. The drain for the tank is actually under the floor of the trunk. Looks neat and when its time to drain the oil, won't mess up the engine bay or trunk.
I may change the routing of the breather lines later, right now I just wanted to get her fired. Attached image(s)
