LOOKS GREAT MATT! Are you gonna need to heat wrap your mani since the fitting sitts on top of it?

 

No, there is about 1/4 inch of space between the 2. Should be fine.

 

did you ever spray your manifold matt? i know you were talking about it

 

vht paint on my cast mani = fml. All that work and its cracking some

 

Nah didn't want to cover it up and deal with what Bryan is dealing with.

 

Matt, why did you opt to weld bungs to the valve cover instead of running off the ports on the back of the block? There's no performance difference, right?

Also just picked up a couple things..



Won't be buying anything for awhile now haha

 

ha ha i KNOW THIS!


QUESTION:

anyone running a hydro tranny with the innovative cable conversion that wouldn't be shy about posting a picture of it?

 

^ Dude you've seen my car. Thats what I run.......Ummm pm me ur number and i send u a pic.

 

i run the innovative conversion as well.

 

Ordered some energy rear c arm bushings and shifter stabilzer bushings. Hope the rear c arms work with Megan control arms.....

 

they don't with blox. i know that.

 

**** lol. Well we will find out....

 

^^ lol that was a looong time ago homie.. i bought it and i'm pretty sure your da was the reason i chose it over the hasport one.. i'm just trying to figure what i need to do for a "tucked" look... atm my phone isnt receiving/sending texts or images

 

Yeah i found out the hard way with Blox LCAs

 

you run the bungs on the valve cover to also vent the engine, while it doesnt directly vent the crankcase itself. Pressure builds up in the head. Built up pressure in the head blows valve cover gaskets very quickly especially on a turbo car. I too did what you kinda are doing.

i have 4 bungs in the valve cover, and the two block fittings. that run to the B & R catch can. the two block fittings will drain back, with any oil that might collect in can. while venting the crank and the head. No more stupid hot oil is gonna end up in my nice port match IM

 

the ports on the back of the block and the valve cover are all one continuous cavity. And ACTUALLY, if you want to locate the vents closer to the source of the pressure, you would put the vents out of fitting on the block because that closer to the crankcase.. i understand the concept of a catch can, that's not the problem.

 

ooo i know, i was just saying its essential to vent the valve cover on turbo cars, i am venting both the crank with the two block fittings and the valve cover with 4 bungs there, although my car isnt turbo.

honda's dont build much pressure in the crank as apposed to the head i was reading once.

 

hmm
