    Catch can plumbing

    I got a vented can, both valve covers run into a T. and then 1 pipe to the can, have plugged the vac and have no airbox line, have the Hennessey twin airfilters, would I be better getting rid os the T and running individual hoses direct to the can? this sound a better deal " running a...

    Catch can plumbing

    so you have plugged and bypassed the vacuum? I think my problem is I have tall valve covers, the fittings are right at the back, and the baffling is minimal

    Catch can plumbing

    My brain is getting frazzled here, the normal ccv is done by; passenger side valve cover to airbox, to let in fresh air, the drivers side valve cover to vaccum in inlet manifold. The most popular catch can setup I have seen on this site is: Left valve cover to T piece, right valve cover to...

    Well, after the case of the exploding valve springs, I changed the lot, changed the valve seals, one pissed pushrod, bolted the rockers back on and sheared a couple of bolts so I changed them all, torqued them up, stuck everything back together and would you believe it? it started first go...

    T&D Rocker bolt question

    I need to change the 30 bolts that fix my rockers to the rails, they are 12 point bolts, they seem to have gone a bit brittle, 2 snapped off when torquing, they seem to be out of stock here, I can get the same high tensile bolts but with an allen key head, its not a problem for me to change, but...
