What's the best way to vent the case on the 3.0? I know there's a pipe coming out of the top of the engine, but what should I be connecting it to?

You can run it to a catch can/breather also.

QUOTE(MJHanna @ Mar 4 2015, 06:19 AM)  You can run it to a catch can/breather also. Yes. A catch can between the oil filler line and engine intake is suggested. Some attempt a catch can directly from the engine, but oil velocity is highest here and a catch can will fill much faster. The oil tank is a better transition path. Do not attempt to seal this path as some have tried. Crankcase blowby must be vented otherwise oil leaks will develop. After the catch can, some vent to atmosphere via a small, filtered breather cap, but suggest gas fumes recirculate back to the intake. Early 911 engines are dirty enough through the exhaust. No need to donate add'l unburned gas fumes to the atmosphere. Sherwood |
