Engine Breather Box?

[mclark]

Have any of you used the engine breather box on your car?

I've bought one as recommended but when I spoke to the engine builder he actually recommended not running it?!?

What is this box? and where does it fit?

Hi Steve,

It goes next to the gearbox invertor breather box on the chassis rail.

It connects to the PCV's and there are two extra pipes that go somewhere but can't see where on the build cd?!?

The two from the top just loop down and vent to air below the transmission somewhere (anywhere thats tidy) Tywrap to chassis frame.

Here's a photo from our buildsite on how we did the breather.

In most cases, a vaccuum line from the intake manifold is attached to the can with a PCV valve in the line. In my case, Edelbrock suggested that I don't attach a vaccuum line to the EFI unit.
