I am currently installing the third complete 351W based drive train in my 65. It is opened up to 427, has Fitech rail injection with ignition control, and two T3/T4 turbos. The trans is an AODE controlled by Baumann Quick 4. The rear is a 3.50 Torque Worm. Rear tires are MT street 245/60/15.
I have two diesels. Neither has fresh air to the crankcase. The 2001 PSD just runs a pipe from a valve cover to the compressor intake. On the IDI I ran pipes from both valve covers to a Mann separator and the output of the separator to a draft tube. Initially I had the draft tube because I wanted to see how well the Mann was stopping oil. I have since decided the engine runs better on diesel fuel than it does on crankcase fumes.
So far I have not poked any holes in the 427 valve covers. What to do for crankcase ventilation in a turbo gas engine????
And then there is instrumentation. On the IDI I am monitoring exhaust temp on each bank, air temp at the intake manifold, and intake pressure/vac. What is useful on a turbo gas engine.
The last pic at the bottom of this album is the current state of things. There are some captions at the pic bottoms and right side bar;
