Do your engine breathers smell?
I am thinking on redoing the crank case ventilation. Current setup is 2 #10AN lines to flame arrestor. I was considering changing to the filtered type (K&N, Morso, etc) that mount to a tube on the top of each valve cover.
Does this type smell after running when you idle around our stop for a while? I am concerned the oil vapor will drift out of the engine compartment into the cockpit. Rick |

Rick I run these and I have no problems with any odors out of the engine compartment. I do generally run the blowers when I am idling or sitting still though. |

Rick,
Are they back in the boat? Did you dyno them what kind of power did they make? Still on the quest for the Top Gun but waiting to pull the trigger till my condo sell in the keys |
Re: Do your engine breathers smell?
if the motor had some blowby you will smell it depending on the engine compartment , my Hustler you can smell it. I put the breater by he air intake and that took care of it.I do have blowby at 9lbs of boost.pistion to cylinder clearance is high on mine :(
I am changing my system up this winter #12;s and a Moroso puke tank that has a baffle ,fiter etc.we'll see? Rob:drink: |

I just changed mine back to the hoses to the flame arrestor. Had the K&N push in type filters. You do smell oil a little after running hard. Also I noticed a fine oil film over the engine after some long runs.
