    Without baffles in the valve covers, that catches can is going to be full of oil quick.

      All you need is something to keep oil from flinging directly into the fitting on the valve cover. A small baffle will not restrict flow enough to negate the upgraded hose diameter.

Honestly there are many UA-camrs that could only dream of accomplishing HALF of what you already have, the quality of the content and the builds have remained top notch, and I hope you and other people are realizing it. Onwards and upwards.. Also have you thought about building a full size American wagon for an insane swap? kind of a way to take what you've learned and improve on it for a drag and drive build

    Tip
    With a little heat and a hammer you can make exhaust pipes bigger or smaller.
    With a ball hammer hit the inside edge of the tube to flare it out.
    With the flat side hit the outside edge to flare it in.
    Upto an inch in difference can be achieved.
    Use many light taps working around and around to gradually achieve the shape

    • @jean-charlesweyland129

    Without the baffles in the valve covers you will fill your catch can up very fast because it will throw oil in the port. The baffles prevent straight oil going into the lines just the air and what little oil is in the air

  • @travis7212
    @travis7212 Рік тому

    Just an fyi your exhaust isn’t divided so the divided housing isn’t going to increase spool. Also the turbine wheel is still the same size so you’ll still run into back pressure issues. You can only flow so much through a 75mm outlet no matter how big the housing is. It will give you wiggle room though. I also hope you aren’t trying to get 1000whp out of a 7875…

I've been significantly faster on that exact trans engine and turbo combination in a heavier car. That new combination will absolutely help. And no disputing the tr6060/magnum internals are superior. But seat time!! Bring us viewers to the track with you and have fun bangshifting.
