dude nice build. i was told by several membbers that it wasnt possible. not enough room they said... etc etc... i didnt read all the pages but i hope you rap everything you can with heat shield and vent your hood bcuz even if he turbos are water cooled they get extremely hot wich can turn your engine bay into a furnace and boil your brake clutch and powestearing fluids, and im sure you know what that means. fade fade fade

Thanks I will take measures to keep her cool under pressure, but it is not a success yet.
 
You know I have no idea, but another forum was saying it would be to release some of the positive pressure caused by a turbo similar to that caused under the valve covers. But the more I think about it the less I think I want/need to.
C32/35 have probably the best internal breather system I have seen. A 1" hose from each rocker to a vented catch can would be more than adequate.

To make up for the threadjack I recently perpetrated I will add some progress photos........

As you can see we need to work out the angles a little better. We also really need those collectors to get a better idea on how this will all fit together. Then we will get them all welded up.

Ok now we are getting somewhere, and yep thick as hell, to hold in heat and last forever :), plus take on my need for more power as I go up in turbo size. They look a little rough right now but this is work in progress.

Buzzard thank you for you input and feed back on the breather ports off each valve cover that is what I will do and then just run it it a single breather tank.
 
it looks good but i dont know about the diameter of pipe what size is it? when i was wrking at turbo performance in van nuys my boss was telling me that even on a built motor you would never wana go above 1 5/8" diameter it could cause slow or no spool, and you only go that big of pipe when your trying to make 700+hp.

not to thread crap or anything, but where are you going to relocate your turning signal fluid reservoir?
I am going to just tap into the reservoir for the battery fluid, anymore questions?
 
I thought that was a serious note I relocated my battery fluid to the rear as well as the turning fluid, I never thought to put em together thanks for the idea telion! Save room in my trunk.
