ccv Reroute and Water ???

Hi guys

Looking at doing the CCV mod but was wondering if ever in deep water, puddle wouldn't the water migrate up the vent hose to the valve cover? Also if I need to do the exhaust trick mentioned in another post if I duplicate the angle of the pipe in the intake then I should get the desired venturi effect right?

I believe that the pressure in the crankcase would not allow water to go up the hose if you do choose to do the ccv reroute. Plus, there's also gravity. No idea what exhaust trick you're talking about, though. Go ahead and reroute the ccv.

In another thread someone welded a piece of 1/4" pipe with a 45 degree angle cut into the exhaust pipe and piped the ccv to it, & got rid of it that way.

If you're going to weld in a bong into your exhaust all you just have to make sure that it tilted up so that the oil can drip into the exhaust instead of pooling in the reroute hose.

I am the guy that routed it into the downpipe. My bung is welded horizontaly into the front of the downpipe (its kinda tight in there) and so far, no oil is pooling up. It works pefectly.

I was thinking that would be my project for this week. Divert the CCV plumbing to my Cat delete pipe and use the Crankcase Evacuation Replacement Weld in Fitting to create a neg pressure draft...... Will it work?

I'm not sure if the check valve would be necessary... I get lots of exhaust movement even at idle and Im not sure how much resistance the check valve would create..... That resistance would reduce the effectiveness of the ventouri effect. Does anyone have experience with this????

hey guys I just read the install for the moroso 25900 crankcase evacuation setup. They setup there nipple vertical and at a 45 degree angle so the flow of the xhaust pulls the vent ed gasses with it. here is the link to the jegs page and the morosos page. The good thing i realized taht if this kit works and you have a cat delete pipe you can set it up in both the cat delete and the stock cat mid pipe as there are enough parts.

lets wait and see what the experts say. Seems like it would work in theory, they set this up for drag and oval track cars.

Or go with the Jegs or Mr Gasket Kits for $20 less.....I've got good flow running the 4" with no cat, no muffler.... It should be no dirtier than the regular oil burner exhaust.....

ccv reroute into exhaust

picked up a one way valve from NAPA that is intended for sir pump to exhaust use on gassers. It is part #2-29000 this one has a nipple on one side and female thread on the outlet side. I am going to weld a bung into my exhaust pipe post cat and use a threaded nipple with the angle cut, I can then adjust depth of nipple to affect the venturi action( wow that sounds like a smart guy wrote that ) I figure I could thread it in and ever there is a problem I can easily remove it, adjust it, replace it or ???

I know alot of guys here have done similar things just offering a slightly diff solution.

I could take some new pics if someone would be willing to post 'em if I can't

Definetly take some pics. Even though I can't weld, I would like to see the setup. I wonder of the dealership is going to make a fuss about though?
