plenty of people just use the vents on both sides. you'll be fine doing this. not sure about the sizes, but there are threads out there already you could search for.

 

Cool Ill do some digging. If anyone has any info in the meanwhile



Also, any thoughts on the block needing the vacuum or the thing about the hot air not being sucked into the intake?

 

Ok found a thread with some info

3/8th and 5/8th are the sizes and I need to vacuum caps of the same sizes.


What about the filter for the oil fill cap? I dont know if I want that, but what size is it in case? The thread I found that shows it, doesnt show what size it is.

 

the oil cap breather you need a special one bc the usual screw in ones wont fit on the s197

got mine from cfm.
CFM Billet Valve Cover Breather Kit for 2005-2011 Ford Mustang GT

these are the part #'s for K&N breathers:
62-1320 (3/8) passenger side
62-1340 (5/8) driver side

 

Where did you get the vacuum caps? I can't find a 5/8s anywhere.

 

If you have emissions or inspection beware. I think you will fail because this is messing w/emissions system in some way(Venting to the atmosphere)Was pretty sure i read this info on another forum.

 

lol emissions. Tell that to my off road x haha.

 

I found the caps. They are called bypass caps, you can get them at any store. They are HELP! brand, part number 02253. Got mine from

http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/DOR3/02253.oap?ck=Search_02253_-1_3314&keyword=02253

Cheapest vent filters I've found. Got mine for 34.54, free shipping.

 

Open breathers. 3/8" and a 5'8"... I got mine in RED!!! Red for PIMP!

 

You could have had more power if they were yellow. Everyone knows yellow means more power.

 

Black is the fastest color. Duh.

 

I have a home depot air compressor line drier that I used with great success on my old turbo miata, and I put that in on the pass side, but cant come up with a clean solution for the drivers side.

Why did you put a line dryer on the passenger side? No oil or crankcase gases come out of that side if you have a closed PCV system. That is the intake for your crankcase ventilation. The only oil mist you should be getting is from the Driver's side.

Now if you change to cam cover breathers, the flow will be reversed. Nothing coming out of the drivers side and everything coming out of the passenger side. The reason why some of us run an oil cap breather is to aid in the crankcase ventilation and prevent all of your crankcase gases from only having one outlet. Some of us will experience oil residue on the passenger side cover if you only have the one outlet. Having the oil cap breather helps relieve the pressure and prevents oil mist from dirtying up your engine compartment.

 

Pics please!

 

+1 on the pics.

 

These are Bosses. I'll post pics when I get mine

 

Why not do both? Breathers on a line with a catchcan between the valve cover and the breathers.

 

This what want to do because you get a lot of oil seepage with just the filter. :yes

 

It's not the best pic, and not the prettiest engine bay... But, there are mine.

 

Yea once you boost oil will be seeping out pretty good trust me!

 

Im pretty much saying what Boss said again but what the hell... basically the PCV system is just circulating air. The passenger side sucks the air in and the drivers side blows that air and whatever blowby oil it caught with it back into the intake. Supercharged cars usually suffer from more blowby oil.

That being said a lot of people do the breathers because its an easier install and better look. Catch cans are known to still let blowby past them if not done properly. I myself am going with a catch can because I like the way they look and I want to be able to check the blowby every now and then and potentially see if there's anything in my oil or if there's an excess of blowby at any point and time.

 

so how about a catch can w/ a breather on top.

Breather, Overflow and Catch Cans

 

That is my plan!:yes of course it will not be that one! way too much!

 

I currently run all three breathers. I've also been pretty bad about cleaning the engine bay this year. As such I now have puddles of oil in the sparkplug valleys on the passenger side valve cover and oil spray along the entire outside of most components on the passenger side engine bay. It's also slowly creeping down the side of the engine bay and getting close to saturating the starter and other items. Time for some cleaning, it's everywhere.
I drive this thing 365 days a year, 50 miles a day to and from work. I downshift a lot (cause of most of the spray, probably) and haven't had the time to keep up with the cleaning. I'm hoping the catch can + breather setup will help. Because I'm not getting rid of the breathers.

 

I'll be running this on my Novi setup:

Its a two into one catch can/breather.

 

looks at link above

 

Jake which can is that? And where did you get it?

 

triple breathers.
