Build Thread My Never Ending 89 Notch Thread

So today was a good day . I believe I have sorted all the issues out car wasn't loading up or anything drove through the neighborhood stop and go today for about 10 min at operating temp .

All seems well . Maybe 2 weeks or so we'll see and maybe it will see the rollers . @84Ttop [emoji6]

AFR at idle not too bad considering the tune in my Pms is for something much wilder .

Problem I am having is oil out the breather on the valve cover . Part of me thinks it's just due to the valve cover not having a baffle there . @84Ttop what you think ? I don't remember it doing this before but it's like it's slinging raw oil out on to the valve cover and it's dripping down on to the header . Aggravating so I need to figure that out . Put about 30 miles on it . Car feel torquey I kept it out off boost obviously but was on the expressway doing 65-80 . Other wise so far so good and it's clean .

Depending on where the breather hole is located will dictate the need for a baffle. If you have a lot of oil pressure and the vent is over one of the push rod passages it's possible to suck up extra oil. For now, wrap a red shop rag around the breather and rock on!
 
Hey Jeff do you have a catch can system?...I have everything brand new in a boxes...give me a shout I will give you one hell of a deal....I can send you pictures...
I have everything , thanks though buddy . Just not ready to put it all on yet trying to get the car all sorted out then I will put the catch can system on . But until then I am just trying to sort it out and have the car vent without throwing the oil around from the valve cover .

Well I've fixed the oil spilling on to the valve covers . Both sides are now vented so I am not worried about excess pressure . The driver side had to be massaged a lot but you can't tell the left side that can be seen looks awesome . I'm happy now . Afr cruising still 13.8-15.2 mainly in the 14s . So I got some good miles on it
