That did look good
Dude youre a fucking beast!!!!!!!!!!! And you had Bonita Applebum in the background Tribe callled quest!!! I got a 2005 3500 5.9 dually at the house, cant fucking drive it because I'm overseas but I'll be keeping up on your videos, fucking all the shit you did on the valve cover come out super squared the fuck away.
Great clean install as usual, I can appreciate the work you put i to your truck. All the custom parts just make it look and preform better. Makes the rest of us only wish we could make it ourselvs. Great job on it. Keep the vids coming!
Nice job brother. It looks great. Thank you for sharing. Keep them coming.
One of my favorite channels on UA-cam. Keep the content coming bud!
Cool dude 😎 what a fancy engine bay 💎
impressive as always brother, thanks for sharing, youve inspired me to tackle several projects already, keep up the great work, ideas, creativity., etc.
Man your a great fabricator!!!!! #canada!!!!!!!
Clean work as usual
Looks sick man!!
Glad you like it bro!! 😋😋 looks really good!
Another great video!
Buddy, I'm bringing my truck to your shop. love the attention to detail...
Great video as usual
Awesome video man wish you was closer to my area
Do you do EFI live for 6.7 Cummins?
Good job with the catch can bud 👍 they sure don't leave much room to work with in there
For more clearance on the valve cover you could use a 90° AN -12 to NTP fitting or a
90°AN -12 union fitting. You could also use MS fittings in place of the AN.
Aeroquip should have what you need.
I wish I had a great mind like you.
I prefer buying the stainless steel commercial kitchen scrubbies and stuffing the can with those and using a dip tube. It has worked better than any baffled can I have tried ever.
If I have any issues with this setup I will give that a try.
@@Cumminslife I dont suspect you will for years to come unless the motor is quite loose. I use scrubbies stuffed in cheap cans on turbo gas motors. Usually we gap rings and of course that produces some blow by. I have a catch can on my 24v as well, different reason though, wisconsin weather is all around the dew points in the winter and moisture can get out of hand.
@@blackopsrocks Have been ripping it pretty hard past few days full fuel 4000rpm+ still not a drop of oil in the hoses. Worked better than expected.
Awesome dude. Good to see its working as intended.
Nice work
Fingers crossed that the one way valve never stops working!!!
Real nice job. you can make and sell them best design i have ever seen.great video thanx.
Build a intake horn since your good at welding
Looks like your almost ready for a second cp3 almost
Somebody stole my 99 2500 from kelowna Dec 21st. ..2 days after new brakes and a power
steering pump. ..it's purple with rips in the back seat if you see or hear of parts for sale. $1000 reward no questions asked.
Optimal welding it’s because the arp head studs stick up more then the oem ones it was designed to fit the original motor
Sounds good I live in Ohio so it would be a good drive to Canada, so I’ll look at it, thanks
I feel like a goof watching this. Looks great. I've got a 2001 2500 and Im trying to figure out if I should use a water or orange juice bottle. Lol.
Id go with the orange juice bottle 👌👌
That valve cover was engineered by someone who wanted too look fast not go fast.
Great project. The only thing I would of added is Steel Wool in the catch can before welding it up. The steel wool catches the oil vapor out of the air where it then condenses and drains down to the bottom. If you have accesive drips from the hoses then I'd cut the top off and add some steel or brass wool.
i know I'm kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good site to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Mustafa Merrick Try Flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
@Holden Braylen yup, been using Flixzone for years myself :)
@Holden Braylen thank you, signed up and it seems to work =) Appreciate it!!
@Mustafa Merrick no problem xD
That line with the one way check can get blocked off at the block .it was for oil drain back and they sell block off plates.
Another excellent video! My only question is if you have enough slack in the hoses to allow for the engine torquing under load?
The catchcan and vent hoses are bolted to the engine. There will be no movement in hoses.
Lol I bet your buddy gave you that cover cause he couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t sitting flat haha good video!
Lol it sat flat on my truck no issues! So weird. I used it for a good 5k miles. I went to D&J.
Can you add in a pressure gauge to see how much crankcase pressure you have?
I have a 2004 Dodge Cummins and I’m looking to purchase one of your 6 level tuners, what all comes with the switch, and or what I need to set it up
My switch comes with everything you will need for install. You will also need a hp tuners mpvi2 to load my tuning into your truck and so we can datalog to dial it in further.
If you can come see me locally we can simply use my mpvi2.
Hey optimal, I really love the chanel. I am wondering where you always get your black fittings and black lines for your oil lines?
How much blow by do you have? And how much oil did you consume before and after the catch can?
I think your stuff is awesome. Just watched your video on the traction bars...do you have any sets for sale?
Have you thought about doing any bumper builds for 2nd gens?
Ya coming soon!
Was that the arp heads studs the valve cover was hitting on.
Dixie Mae No, rocker box cover bolt.
Idk if u remember me or not but as of this morning the 4bt in the 96 xj is 100% complete sorry i didnt get u to do it ill send some vids if ur intrested
Sweet would love to see it
Guess I need to go build me 1 of those...
Not really required in any way for your setup but sure does look sweet!!
I know at least 3 24v 2nd gens at my house that could use a catch can, how bout a video for that?
@@tonybergosh8582 Yeah you could build it exactly the same on your vp trucks.
Exactly the same? What about the puke tube on the front cover?
@@tonybergosh8582 You could run your catchcan from there or block that off and tap new lines into valve cover.
With the stock CCV canister, on the valve cover couldn't you just pop of the large vent line and mill out the opening vent that feeds from the valve cover for a better breathing unit? If your worried about sealing the system completely you could just get a large enough hose fitting something stubby and put a one way valve on it so moisture doesn't get inside or plasti weld a one way valve to the outlet. You could retain the factory drain back to the crank case as well on this setup.
When I got my 03 HO, the larger vent hose was barely holding on and just collecting oil, I just ripped it of and left it wide open while retaining the factory drain. I can see the steam from the back side of my hood when its cold, but at most i get a light mist of oil on my valve cover that i wipe off every once and awhile.
Also on your design using the billet cover couldn't you have just drilled ports on the side of the cover to mount your A/Ns I would assume it wouldn't make a difference vent wise since its pressure taking the least path of resistance to a low pressure area but i could be wrong.
Also on your design I was surprised at how bulky it was, with the fittings that you were using I would've assumed that the holding canister size wouldn't need to be so huge since its venting and draining like a mf back to the crankcase.
Keep up the content, hope this feedback helps.
What valve cover is that? A Hellman or custom made?
You got custom tunes for a 98 24v
I have a vp44 ecu on my bench right now that I have read out the tune and also flashed new modified file in with no issues so far. Custom tuning with sotf coming very soon.
@@Cumminslife sound good bud been watching you for a good bit and if i would get tunes problay get yours and the ne catch can look dope with the valve cover
I'd be interested as well. Keep us updated!
definitely interested. especially if it's cheaper than the quadzilla
what size tires are you running?
Next time we are NOT gonna use UPS lol!
Yeah that cover has been to more places in the states than me.. At least I got it eventually!!
@@Cumminslife Haha right! Glad ups let us know they lost it... they're such a joke
I just realized you did the 2nd gen swap what intake tube is that on the turbo
I cut up k&n setup I had on stock turbo
@@Cumminslife I tried that with a 45 my filter is to big the AFE big fucking air filter I think it's bfaf I'm fixing to build one from 5 inch exhaust tubing
Did you have any issues with oil consumption when you did this mod?
the purpose of an oil catch can that recirculates is to prevent oil from burning which is why he has the drain on the bottom of the can, non recirculating catch cans will have the oil gather in the can and need to be drained. Its in the name catch can, it catches oil and either vents to atmosphere and fills or recirculates like his
@@Nate6133 yes i under stand that the system i built was just like his and i have a drain back to block mine in a double chamber can so it can vent off and drain back. I was asking because i stared getting a ton of blow by through can. But i figured it out i burnt up 2 sets of rings so thats why thanks for replying
Why tf are you so smart
Clean that air filter man lol... otherwise good instructional video
It is clean just real old and stained. I will upgrade to larger size that fits my turbo better soon.
What's the song you are listening to at 13:15 ?
Metallica 👌✌
I deleted my work truck and that's all I thought was necessary. But I'm old so I don't get it I guess.. I'm older than them old Sabbath songs I hear!
A delete and tune is enough for most people but I do this to see how truck reacts to improve my tuning ability's.
Well good work !! You sure do get things done . I thought you was a pipe welder at first . Didn't realize you know the Cummins like you do . If I was closer I would have you tune my rig for sure !! I need all the mpg i can get
I like your videos. I have to dislike this cz all that work for no reason
