Re: Everybody loves a good train wreck

Is that a pcv setup you have going that’s by the knock sensor? Did it work good?

Re: Everybody loves a good train wreck

It definately vented, problem was alot of oil vapor would leave with the fumes, so you either have to run a catch can that drained back into the block, or empty it every 100 miles. The typical catch 22 of most of the setups. My theory was to draw a vacuum with the intake manifold for cruising, and maybe try to pull a vac with the turbo intake on the redone valve cover I did. But I never got that far.

Re: Everybody loves a good train wreck

Boost/timing is my guess. I was asking alot out of them. 38ish psi, 9.5:1 compression, and still had around 11 deg in it at around 6500 rpm when it blew. Wasn't rpm, happened right as it hit full boost.

Running e85. I use the stuff from Bobby and Steve's in Eden Prairie. Usually tested at 83%, I'd get a barrel at a time. Lot easier to keep things consistent that way.
