Additional Crankcase Venting

im liking it too but i dont think they will fit on my truck, can you run it on cly 1 and 2 and 5 and 6, im just worryed about the injector lines

better take another look at the pics

do you think that it will fit over the injector lines

Yeah, don't go by my pics as I run that twinram mess. As such, I had custom IP lines made to fit and they route different from OEM.

No they won't fit over the IP lines as the middle headbolts (or studs) are under there too.

k thanks, liken the setup though

Hi Ross! How ya been? Good to hear from ya!
List price on mine was $75, and the breather was about what you paid. Of course, I didn't pay that. Mine came from the Case dealer.

Hey Pete, I'm still kicking

CK, with intercooled injection lines you can use two of these double valve covers. They will be on cylinders 2/3 and 5/6. With non-intercooled injection lines you can only run one double valve cover on 3/4, because of how the lines are routed between the valve covers. For air to water aftercooler lines, KTA, I haven't looked yet, but I imagine we could run at least one if not two. I can't remember which cylinders the injection lines split. I think we'd use 2/3 and 4/5.

BC, I'm not gonna 'Y' or 'T' my vent hoses. I'm gonna have 3 draft tubes hanging down . Look like one of them big bad pulling trucks with multiple draft tubes hanging down . Course it's gonna cost me in heater hose . I didn't look real close is it 5/8" or 3/4" hose?

3/4. I know you're gonna take it to NAPA with you to get the hose anyways.

3/4", yep just found that out while out in the garage. Need to find somewhere cheap to buy black heater hose. My local farm store, Rural King, actually has 3/4" cheaper than the other sizes at .89 a foot. But it's red . It was what I used for my air to water aftercooler system. Used 30' of it .

Unless I'm mistaken, there is a single valve cover unit of this vent design available.

Update for nonintercooled injection lines. I thought I would be able to place the dual valve cover over cylinders 3 and 4. That would be directly under the stock crossover pipe. Well it won't fit, there's not enough clearance between the crossover and breather. But there's another option.. There's only one injection line, instead of two or three, that run between cylinder 1 and 2, and also 5 and 6. The dual valve cover/breather unit fits over this single injection line, giving you the option of placing the breather on 1/2 or 5/6.

And good lord, 3/4" hose is huge when you're trying to stuff it down side the block. My local farm store had some 150psi sprayer hose, black in color, looked the same as the heater hose they have, which is red, cheaper than heater hose at .80 a foot.

Yeah I that stuff is stiff! You might have to use a rigid elbow to get it in the right spot, I know that is going to cost more!
