Default Do I need these 3 Block Port fittings?

For Drag Racing, do you use these 3 block port fittings or only the one which remplace the black box?

Most people use a plug for the black box hole and just drain back to the two beside it. If you're running ethanol I'd suggest not draining back to the block period.

Why do you want to get rid of the black box?

i have been draining back my e85 can for 2 years with no problems. Then again, I change the oil every 2-300 miles.

I want to use 10 AN fitting to my Catch Can.

I want to know what is the best for my car and if I need to drain back with 1, 2 or 3 fittings.
With the black box there are 2 drain points as well?

Moreover, I prefer the look of 10AN that the back box

2 fittings. I personally wouldn't run a third line back to the block. The point of the catch can is to collect all the gunk and release excess pressure. I would only run a third line back to the block if the oil returning was filtered, in lamins terms, **** that.

OK so I plug the black box hole and put 2 fittings to the Catch can.

What about the second fitting that goes to the black box?

So before put the engine into the car I need your help.

I use one fitting here (below) but the one just above is in the same canal, Do I need to but a fitting or leave the OEM plug?



There is another vent just above I connect to the catch can


And another one here behind the aftermarket Pressure sensor


Which one do you advice me to put a fitting or a plug?

My setup is for Drag Use.

Thks

I'd mount that oil pressure somewhere else. The weight and vibration might break it off the block.

the stock fittings suck, literally... they've been known to blow oil out of the block into the catchcan...

stick to the 10-an fittings, they work much better

the stock fittings arent anti syphon and the oil will fill the catch can quickly. Personally i dont like using the fitting on the back of the block at all. Bad luck with them filling my can even with better fittings. Your better off leaving the black box and putting a fitting on that to breathe the block and putting fittings on front of VC IMO
