it uses the low pressure caused by the exhaust gasses running over the spigot to vent the crankcase with a small amount of "suction"

We had it installed on our car too and found out it just didn't work... we have since scrapped it... for some reason we lost power with it installed...

have you guys try an actual vaccume pump yet?

danny's trying this 'cause his oil dip stick is poping out and making a mess...

btw, i'm going to update my good old Honda Drag Registry http://g-speed.com/pbh/fastest soon and make it dynamic (db back end). i'll ask you guys to submit some time slips soon.

A vaccum pump will go on the car soon... we haven't added one yet... actually the rules just allowed to do that... So hopefully soon! i will check out the registry... sounds like a good thing!

The crankcase communicates to the valve cover vents through large oil drainage passages from the head to oilpan.

i like the header, what size steps are in the primaries.

o'h ya the preshure build up in the crank case creats ring flutter and causes blow by.

blow by creates crank case pressure.
positive crankcase pressure leads to pumping losses as well as losing more ring seal, which can then lead to more blow by, ring flutter, and detonation.

Frank, you've been my hero for the past seven years

Update it! I've been waiting for over 3 years for that to happen! Gonna hit 11's next year in the Sol "full (cough cough) interior" 0.438 seconds to go...
