Hello Dave, would you be interested in selling your Predator?
Very nice setup. Thanks for the detailed info!
Ok, here is what the experts say will work for my setup: Use positive locking, baffled valve cover breathers on each valve cover (not push-in...
Thanks to all who have commented. For those of you who thought that I was overthinking this and made it more complicated than needed to be, you...
Thanks for the reply, and the questions! As others have indicated the possible vacuum leak issue as you have, I will need to re-think this. Not...
Thank you for the reply! I may try the setup you described. A much simpler solution.
Thank you for the detailed response. I do understand how a simple PCV system works. This is a new build, so no bad piston rings (that I know of!)....
Hello, I have studied this site and others, and have compiled an EVAC system design for a GM style 671 supercharger that is carbureted (no...
Thank you!
Thanks for the input, Jim!
Thanks for the reply. You have brought to my attention some deficiencies in my plan. I am working on a new design that I will post for review. I...
Thanks again, Bob!
Thanks, Bob. I missed that when you posted this pic in another post topic. So are these simply breather tanks? One side would pull contaminates...
Hello, I have attempted to search and read all applicable crankcase ventilation content I could find on this site. Very informative! I am...
I have read that the Carter/Edelbrock carbs do not need to be boost referenced. Is this correct?
Thanks, Bob!
Thanks for the reply!
Hello, I am running a TBS 6v-71 blower on a 311 CI Gen 1 SBC. The engine is built for the blower. Using the standard CFM formula for supercharged...
Street/strip.
I am well versed in CAD and have access to a 5-axis CNC and operator. I will take a closer look at design criteria. Thanks!
Thanks for that info. Are those adapters available? I think that I could build one.
“gimpyshotrods” - thanks! I have done the research on boost referencing and will either do this myself or order carbs that have been modified. I...
Thanks, Jim! I would like to run 600’s or 650’s, as the availability is better. From the research I have done, It would be better to run rich than...
Thanks for the reply. I am using the standard formula that seems to be the standard for supercharger shops. I do know that this is a simple...
Hello, Does anyone have any experience with modifications and tuning 500 CFM Carter AFB’s or Edelbrock dual quads for a roots-style draw through...
I am thinking about running (3) Rochester 2G’s. I have read that 500 CFM rating is actually 435 CFM. Doing the math: 435/1.414 = 308x3 = 923 CFM...
The above referenced item was sold. Ok, if I can’t find one I will build one. Now all I need is a firm decision on carburetors!.
Thanks, Jim! I think that I could design it and have it CNC milled. I did find that exact type of adapter in your referenced post in the H.A.M.B....
Are there any 2x4 471 adapters out there?
Good to know. Thanks for that!
