No its new hope it will work

The valve cover breath hole and the one in my block is also closed (actually I never drill it in the new block) and now it breath from a 1" beside the alternator

That is a good idea . specialy why the pauter heads have a big rocker room where the oil can stay in

I belive you need more than just 25 mm, why not open the hole up a few mm's... It does wonders for the area.
Looking good Elnef, any chanse of seeing you in the Norwegian woods this fall?

I think 25mm is okay but I will find out in a few days or so

About scc right now I dont think I will be there this year
there is a race at the local drag strip same weekend and its perfect for test and tune (my car is still new build only ran 2x402m in it in this setup)

If you have that 25 mm and one 12mm on each valve cover it is ok. Take the time and make some fittings on the covers

I agree with you John, keep the venting going on in the case... no need to create a "wind" up thru the pushrod tubes.Two 1" fittings in the case roof of the only Pauter case I have seen IRL... makes sense.

Sad to hear your not coming to SCC as we would have loved to have you there.

For me it makes sense to get the pressure out of the valve covers. I had this also before i have the return lines and never oil comming out

Thanks but we actually did it that way and same at all my dyno times before with no problems but there was some rubber parts on the roof and you could see on the slicks surface at they were spinning so my dyno man want to try normal tyre and more strap down and more glue he say he had best results/grib with normal tyre
well we get the result later today  Wink

Well after another day at dyno my new tyre/rims make the dyno catch my power so now no spin  Smiley

But I still got problems ignition or fuel or both engine pull nice and power full up to a little over 6000 but then the curve look strange
we change fuel pump and coil but same and the pc at the dyno says everything okay with ignition and fuel but in real life there is something wrong
We now think there is not power enough in my old bosh ignition to make the fuel burn correct when we pull over 6000 with the more comp I got now 12,8-1 compare to before 12,1-1

now I will go on holiday the next 3 weeks an then take up the battle again  Wink Wink
