    Gents,

    I noticed in your website that you had to add a crankase ventilation tube to your engine to pass scrutineering in formula student. We run a dry sump as well at UQ. whereabouts did you have to add your vent?

    We had to run it from the output at the top of the cam cover to something that would catch any spewwing.....so we ran it to our oil catch can.

    Way to read the details!

    Cheers!

    we just block that vent on the cam cover off to retain vacuum in the engine, we have a vent on the surge tank, to an overflow
