I have an Anderson Power Pipe coming in a few days and i have a quick question about installation. My '93 GT has Vortech s/c..

Where to i run the hose that used to run from the oil filler tube to the Vortech air box? The air box will no longer be used because the MAF is relocated in the fender well.

Thx.

The power pipe should come with a tapped hole for the pcv bypass. Just transfer it from the airbox to the power pipe.

Hmmm. The only hole in the power pipe is the threaded bung for the bypass valve. There seems to be no other hole.

Yes... I have the power pipe model for Vortech superchargers.

I just unhooked it from the Vortech Airbox and left it hanging. It was never under vacuum anyways in that condition so it didn't change anything by just leaving it sit there.

Here's a pretty long link that talks about letting unmetered air into the engine through the oil filler tube:

Long story short, you should add another bung to the power pipe if possible and run the oil filler tube to it.

91lxttrim do you have any soundclips of those ultra flows? also do you have a 3" exhaust from the headers back.

I just got done putting a new shortblock in it and I'm still breaking it in. I'm hoping to make 450rwhp or so when all is said and done. The last motor did 425/435 un-tuned and pulling out a lot of timing.
