Just wondering if anyone has any ideas or have used something to replace the long oil separator crank case breather on the clutch housing. Cheer, Tom.
Flywheel housing breather is useless on long LH bends at high rpm, the primary gear tosses heaps of oil up it.
It is not really an oil separator, the mesh is in there more as a flame trap.
I closed my 1360 one off with a steering rack plate, then ran a 12mm nylon line up to the rocker cover. This equalizes crankcase pressure top to bottom.
My breather runs from the rocker cover to a Toyota PCV valve and then into the intake manifold.
Note this is an old pic, the flywheel housing breather shown on there was capped off.
