I here you guys talk about blow by coming out of the vent hose . I vent mine to the air . But Ive never , ever , seen any drips of sludge , puffs of smoke . Even when I had it hooked up to the Original Vortech filter . There wasnt any signs of blow by what so ever . Stock or the built motor.... nothing !
That hose on the drivers side is more of an Inlet hose to allow fresh air in to the Crank Case, The PCV side is the one that pulls the oil saturated air out since it is tyed into plenum vacuum
Put mine in today. Had to do some trimming and squeezing but it came out good.
Cool ---I dont know where that picture came from --(the OPs) but that is my car -----I rough cut then dremeled ,and seems to me I did a little clearencing at the rediator side, and as you see, vented the Evac inlet to the atmosphere
It took some time --I have the equip though. If I recall, there is metal sandwiched in the plastic core support. I used a carbide cutter to do the finish shaping then another tip to bevel it out. And, hate to say but had to half moon a little off the radiator side reinforcement to make room for torque movement and clean removal.....No harm done. I touched it up after with some satin black.
Do you guys remove the bumper to remove the filter? Also, did you have to trim a little metal off the ac condenser? My inlet on the sc does not line up directly in line with the hole in the core support. Yours looks as if it does?
You know I have 3 G35 fliters for my Vortech Z and I notice a substantial difference everytime I put a clean filter on. So I was changing out my filters every 2 weeks with clean ones. Put on the new K&N fliter last week and it feels like I still have a new clean filter on. Hope that helps.
