did the normal cam break in procedure. ran at 2k-2500 for 30 min. let cool down. started back up and took out on highway and put 50 miles on, moderate driving. this was what the engine builder told me to do.
breathers from champion (his).. grommets he sent me with the valve covers (his)
wide open..i was having an issue with oil out of the driver's side breather, but found out that he had sent me an incorrect breather base. got that resolved and no more oil out of the breather, but out of the dip tube now. i would think if it was excess blowby, i'd be smoking out the breathers too. would pcv valve do this?
i haven't been to the track yet. made some hard street passes to dial the tune in. figured this would be enough?? or does it need a 10 psi launch?
so, possibly not an actual problem, just a necessity to now provide a way to evacute better? i really can't see my luck being THAT bad, as if it hasn't been bad enough with this thing.
There's some guys here that had there motor built that are using the LS1 electric vacuum pumps for their cars to aid in crankcase ventilation I did not go this route but if you do a search you will find a few conversations....
i've seen that on here. but what i'm saying is, i possibly don't have to chase a "problem", that's not actually a problem??
Thats a little cryptic but if I understand what your asking ...The answer is, No might not be a big problem. I think it could be easily remedied... Easy to test. Temporarily run no breather on both sides, insure your PCV is good, and see if it goes away.
only problem with that is i'd have even more oil all over because of the 1" open holes in the valve covers!!
