^^^ I remember from years ago that instead of using a catch can we were going to run the breathers straight to the exhaust using an anti-backfire one way valve, this would then create a vacuum in the sump and would supposedly give you a couple of extra horsepower due to the gases and oil being sucked out of the sump - rather than floating around in the sump - same reason a crank scraper works - stops the excess oil floating around the sump and crankshaft. I think we found out that this is very common amongst the drag racers - you can usually see a line and valve sticking out of the short exhaust pipe.
So if you were going to try and create a vacuum using your scavenge pump - good idea but you would need to have the catch can sealed wouldnt you - otherwise it is just going to suck air through the filters??? Ps I havent posted here before but have followed the story, that engine bay gets better everytime you look at it and congrats on the NASIOC win. The car is a credit to you. Simon p.S took this quote from my thread on rexnet... Thoughts??

if you are trying to create a vacuum, which is a good thing for improving ring sealing, then yes, no breathers.

^^ His 'scavenge' pump is a tiny little 12volt oil pump, it will never evacuate the crankcase enough to even keep up with the blowby, forget about it pulling a vacuum.
Maybe a second power steering pump could be utilised to evacuate the crankcase and the turbo sump, delivering the oil to a separator with a gravity return to the sump and a breather to expel the blowby? |

Me internet warrior.......you are a funny boy sometimes Tino. My post count is just soooooo huge.
Yep your right I spend all my time on forums and not racing, driving or rallying. I still think you missed the point someone else has designed that concept albeit only a catch can not a dry sump, but visually you are proposing a very similar design. I do believe that if people put in the hard work to design something it shouldn't be ripped off by all and sundry. This is not just in regards to Motorsport workshops.

Shane i think your missing the point entirely.. This isnt a one-off design and has been replicated eleswhere with a similar concept, so are we to say that workshop A used their IP.. How my tank setup looks will be entirely how it can be fabricated in the space avaliable. As i said previously i just cobbled together something from a picture rather than me trying to fail at drawing what i wanted it to be.. Now if i went and got that tank in my possession and then got someone else to replicate it then thats a entirely different story... but visually my tank setup will look entirely different and functionally even more so... Am i to say that someone that has used picture of my intake manifold or low mount setup to produce something stealing IP... No (and i have seen similar offerings).. Not unless they actually replicate it.. It will always be different functionally and even visually...

Tino...
I love many aspects of your car, (mechnically mainly), but if you are going to post things/news/info up, you obviously want people to comment. Be it good, bad or indifferent. And hows that Dec 31st deadline date going....? (Not so good I hear.... LOL. Sorry to hear about getting stuff around from paint shop ). Brent.

lol chris the schematic was from my mate in the U.S and in powerpoint i adjusted it to suit and change what i wanted from the catch can.. This has nothing to do with what shane is crying about (and only shane the other people in interest dont care two hoots)... Quote:
Brent i put stuff up for opinions of functionality etc not for people to try and have a winge that im stealing peoples IP... thats below the belt imo.. Have a look at my car and you can see that.. And deadline is dead in the water.. Let me set things straight I havent been stuffed around i always knew that it was going to be tight to get the car in with beyond custom as they are so busy. It just so happened that it didnt pan out how we both wanted and i knew that this was a big possibility, so it will be getting done in early next year with my car being booked in and nothing else getting in the way... it just means that i still be updating the thread next year.. lols...

You can't be serious with this surely? Someone makes something completely different but similar looking to someone else and it's a rip off/IP theft? Every car/tv/coffee mug/painting/clothing/anything else is guilty of this "crime".
