When I got back my car Tues the mechanic told me he took the K&N breather off b/c it needed to breather .I had it on the passenger side valve cover .You know where the metal tube goes to the pipe which connects to the TB . It seems the K&N would be fine there ? Unless the suction from the engine has something to do with the pipe hooking up to the air cleaner pipe .What do you guys think ? B/c I just wonder how right he is about that ?

 

the tube that goes tothe intake, leave alone. the other side feel free to slap a breather on it. The intake creates "vacuum" on the one bank. So the breather on the other cover would be fine to aid in Crank case evac.

 

Thanx man !

 

best said chd...i had the same problem after the cam install i forgot what goes where...and the side that connects to the manifold actaully is a vacuum line going to it ....this is not to be messed with

and the side that goes to the air tube before teh TB can be swapped...for a breather

 

Hmm , thats the side I had the breather on . I didnt mess with any hoses on the manifold . I took the metal hose out of the valve cover which goes to the airtube out and put a breather on that .
