Re: Krank Vent replacments

That'd be perfect. I don't mind if it makes the volume of it smaller, I'll just empty it more often.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

Scheides is crazy, he is now running three Kracka Vents rather than the usual two! He is running a fairly unique catch-can setup that I think will work well.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

fo sho yo! One from pcv location, one from tranny side of valve cover. Those lines run to a brass T, then one hose going up to my catch can. I had a breather filter on the other side of the catch can, but decided I wanted a vacuum source on the whole system so I ran a 3/8 hose to the other end of the where the stock PVC goes to on the intake manifold. Hughes suggested that pressurizing the catch can was a bit of a waste, and probably ultimately a boost leak, so a third KV goes right off of the IM now to keep things happy powerwise.

Yes, but put a KV inbetween the valve cover and that little filter you got there and you'll be set

Re: Krank Vent replacments

Scheides - can you draw a little diagram to help explain what you did? Sorry I get easily confused

95Talonracer - I personally wouldn't go with that method. You have no vacuum source to draw the air out at idle/low throttle conditions.
Also, you have eliminated your PCV. Normally, you are drawing a little bit of air from the VC into the IM. This is unmetered air, but the ECU expects that air to be there and compensates for that. If you get rid of that, you may notice a change in your idle quality.
Also you are going to leave an oily mess under that little filter.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

I am going to put another KV inbetween the little filter and the valve cover. Also I am running a GM faft so the air doesnt matter there going into the intake. Would I even want a KV inbetween the hose on the side of the valve cover? I think ill take that one out.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

My personal opinion is that you should have a KV at both the PCV and breather ports coming off the valve cover.

Scheides and I just worked out his setup and he'll be running a total of 4! Its a great design though and I think it'll work great. I'll be adding a 3rd to my setup...

Is there a reason you removed the PCV setup and replaced it with a little filter?

Re: Krank Vent replacments

Hopefully you can hide all these KV's, seems like a lot of added clutter under the hood.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

They fit inline with your catch-can or pcv lines, or your crankcase breather. I was anxious at first to tuck all these lines away but now that I know what they are doing I have them setup to be as straight and smooth as possible. I will post pics when I have my full setup done!

Next step would be to replace the fuel line hoses with some pimpin braided SS lines with AN fittings....but that's going to get expensive pretty quick!

Luckily, they are so small they can barely even be seen.

Paint them black or have Halon powdercoat them for you, and there you go!

Hmmm...I should talk to Brandon about getting a batch powdercoated black.

Go Nylong braided nignog.
Lighter, Less Abrasive, Easier to assemble, and less BLINGY then SS braided! And 100% NHRA legal

Re: Krank Vent replacments

Here is the CV I'll be using, installed on someone else's DSM.
Again, I'll only be running one, and should be fairly out of sight.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

Here is the cheapest that I know of.
http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS/761335/10002/-1/10019

Or search for Earl's Pro-Lite 350 hose. That is what I have, I got it and fittings off Summit.

Re: Krank Vent replacments

You could do woven push lock also, might be even cheaper and easier to work with. SS braided is so 1990s, black nylon braided and pushlock are the hot setups.
