It's a pan evac system. It's the poor man alternative to a vacuum pump. You run hose to the breathers on the valve covers and it draws vacuum on the crankcase. Same function as a pcv valve except instead of getting all that oily vapor in your intake system it goes out the exhaust.what are those big tubes in the exhaust for? it looks like the air tube for smog pump. I am pretty sure that is not what it is for but I can't figure out what it would be for.
Yeah it's a pretty common setup. It really doesn't pull much vacuum, usually around 4 cfm. It's usually good for a couple HP, and it keeps you from having that oily smell from just running breathers. A vacuum pump will pull 12-30 cfm depending on what your engine likes and can be worth a significant amount of power (20 all the way to 40 hp is common) because it helps control blowby so much. Most run low tension rings with a pump. But a $500 price tag hurts lol.I figured it must be something like that. interesting solution. is this something a lot of racers do?
btw the whole car is looking awesome.
That is one beautiful beast is all I can say!!!
Thanks guys, I'm pumped to get it in the car!that is one killer looking engine
Eh it shouldn't be bad, it only hangs over the fender apron like 2", just enough for the feed fitting on the back to hang offFrom the looks of things with the fuel cell installed it's gonna be a tight fit to get that beast in there.
