Just curious which fittings you used to add more vent ports in your valve covers. What kind of catch cans to you guys run these to?

i had to add 2 more vents on my valve cover, and if you look close you will see the smaller catch can by the abs unit, thats the one the valve cover gos to, btw i make these cans

its so wierd , my fully built y8 doesnt show an ounce of blowby......how come some motors have alot of blowby and others dont.

B18C1CYA

well in a motor that is built for turbo have low tension oil rings so they are some what loose ( from what i was told ) , and pluse i run 24psi once and a while and that adds the the crank case pressures as well.

did you just drill and tap the valve cover then thread those in?

B18C1CYA

yup located them so they where in the stock baffle then drilled and taped with a 1/4'' ntp tap

ive got 9.0:1 cps in my block....i havent upped the boost that high yet , but at 12 psi its fine , thats why i was asking , my carbing catch can is dry as a bone.

B18C1CYA

yeah they dont get hardly any oil in them just there to releave the pressure

cos too much pressure is bad, lol

What I'm doing is just geting some 1/2" ID aluminum tubing and weldig it instead of tapping/threading it in. Makes for a cleaner nice install imo. Just be sure to drill into the front baffles or else you'll get **** loads of oil

yeah i was going to do that but did want to mess up my paint job lol,

Very true. You could just take the paint off where you're gonig to weld and then weld it so it still looks nice.



I always strip my valve cover anwyays to colour match it so I don't really care about the stock coating hehe

how does this setup compare to tapping in back of the block like the endyn/z10 kits do?

I want to know this too. I've read a lot of postings by people having issues with oil totally filling the lines of the Endyn kit. That's why I'm interested in the valve cover method.

BTW, thanks for the great replies so far guys!

indeed this is a great topic

B18Flip

my thoughts exactly, i saw this setup on Tbone's 11 second n/a CRX and i really liked it

i have the block taped also so i cant answer that one for you, i added the venting on the valve cover cus my plug wires would pop of at 24 psi so i had to vent the pressure out better,

the post you read are they using the edyn one for shure or just getting the fittings from honda and are they saying it endyn? cus the endyn fittings are diffrent so you dont siphone the oil out of your motor,

rhettster

Seems like these guys are running the real Endyn kit, including the "siphonless" block fittings. Maybe it's install error, but it seems like several guys have problems.

For those of you asking about the Endyn kit, this is the pic of Larry's car. He has both. And if installed properly will not fill up with oil.

When you add the two vents to the front of the valve cover, what do you do with the stock vent on the back of the valve cover?

So is the reason the #3 sparkplug would pop out sometimes after a hard run?
