Crankcase breathers and the oil odor in the car

[Lone Star Performance]

A little off topic but your comment on cars and coffee got me. I just got done putting in an MMR stroker motor with 17psi Kenne bell, ported heads, blah blah blah. Got it back on Thursday, washed and waxed it Friday, got to C&C at 6:55am on Saturday and they turned me away for "being too heavy on mustangs". Needeless to say, I was pissed!

That sucks!

Since I started this thread I have put another 100 miles on it and after 550 miles on the turbo and roughly 1000 on the engine, the rings have seated. LOL. Much easier on the eyes and nose now. Have been keeping the drains OPEN on the canisters and checking for drips each time I park it. After a couple trips and this last one I was a little hard on it, no drips, nothing, zip, zilch, nada.

I am still gonna move them to the rear but two open breathers one of which is connected to the vacuum pump (read, takes place of a PCV), I think I will be golden.

This sounds great.

Scott, there were a bunch of mustangs turned away this past show. They sure didn't turn away any of the F'ing vettes though. Maybe next time we should all show up at 4:00, park and walk away. Heck, park in the parking spots of the exotics and never come back to the cars until noon. Put a sign on the windows that say, don't turn us away and we wont shit on your happy little show.

I tried to create an account on C&C Dallas Forum to complain but couldn't get it to accept my profile.

What year is your car?

Car is a 2000 crystal white GT

Moved.


I put them on a plate that is setting on studs so it can be pulled easy enough if I need to.


This was hard to figure out. I had to make a few goes at it to get it right.
