Default Re: crank case pan evac for the street

I think evac-u-pan would be ok, and shouldn't cause any problems, unless you have to pass a smog test every year. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
with a standard PCV, the excess gases are sucked back into the intake, and re-burnt, with evac-u-pan, the gases are sucked right into the exhaust, where they might not be completely burt before being exhausted.
I had the same setup on a 340 Duster I had some yrs back.
I didn't have any problems, but afetr I sold the car, the guy I sold it to had to pass a smog test, and it failed.
I never did hear if he ever got it to pass, or what he had to do to get it to pass.
I simple PCV would be alot easier, and cheaper.

I run vac u pan on my ZL1 motor and it seems fine but you can also run a puke can with a breather on top fastened to your rad support plumbed to the valve cover, I've used 2 of these cans on a buds BBC pro street/strip chevelle that made a mess of oil on the valve covers and that cured the problem, but he drives like this ( see pics )
