Installed Breather Cans
Re: Installed Breather Cans
Wow 2 of them? Moroso came out with one that has two 3/8 NPT bungs on it. That is the one I just picked up for $60. They look good though. I installed mine in a similar spot, but I only have one and I made a bracket and mounted it off onto the drvers side.

Thats the exact reason I did it. Plus I wanted to get rid of my PCV valve. No use in having hot crank case air in my intake manifold.

The cans were $70 per can, hose was $60 for a 6ft length, and $30 per 90 degree fiting, 15 per straight.

Re: Installed Breather Cans
Wow...Im more impressed with the heater core hoses! haha. Not to say the cans are cool though. I really like how clean the hardlines make things look. And you can tuck them down and mount them. I really like that idea. I might have to steal it.. hehe

Thanks it took me a little bit to come up with that. I tired using 5/8 roll of fuel line but it was too hard to get straight. So I ended up using aluminum tube that was about 1/8 thick. Then I used a pipe bender to get the bends. Kind of a pain but it turned out good.

Re: Installed Breather Cans
may sound a bit dumb, but what advantage do breather cans have over regular breathers that sit in the valve cover itself? thanks.

Re: Installed Breather Cans
cans can be installed on high blowby aps (supercharged/turbocharged) to eliminate spewing oil onto the valve covers, they displace pressure better b/c of size and trap the oil within the can. It is not necessary really to have 2 or to apply them to a NA motor unless it is high comp. Very clean compartment by the way, well done!

Re: Installed Breather Cans
My valve covers did not have baffles in them. So oil easily went into my breather filters on my valve covers. Then it would leak. So I put these cans in. It fixed the problem. Plus I will possibly be going turbo this winter.
