Mark,

Just stopped @ IPS today and checked your vette out. It is always fun to follow your builds and your dream to hit 200 at quarter. It is coming...

Pure awesome!!!

I have a question though, your not going to run it on the street? You have no crankcase evac system....just a vented can to relieve pressure. No way to evacuate the damaging combustion byproducts.

Below is a detailed explanation:

Now, some will ask, "why not just delete the PCV and run breathers"? This is where we find the PCV system is the most misunderstood system on cars today and almost NO techs today, or aftermarket performance shops/vendors understand. First, most beleive it is just to releive excess crankcase pressure. This is true, but it does far more. Every internal combustion engine has a small amount of blow-by even if sealed well. This blow-by consists of unburnt fuel, water vapor,carbon particles (very abrasive), sulfer, and other compounds that are harmfull to the motor and the PCV system evacuates, or "flushes" these compounds out while they are still suspended in the gasses. If they are NOT evacuated before the enginne is shut down and cooled, they condense and mix into the oil. The moost damaging are the fuel as it dilutes the oil, the carbon particles (to small for the oil filter to remove) as they are very abbrasive, and the water & sulfur, and other compounds mix to form sulfuric acid. An oil analysis will show the levels of these compounds as well as other metals from wear. The sulfuric acid after it reaches a certain PPM will begin to etch the bearing & journals surfaces leading to premature wear and possible failure. The water causes corrosion.

In my new system I will be running a 7 stage dry sump pump, one of which will handle the crank case vacuum. I will vent through the dry sump to the dry sump tank that has a built in catch can with a breather; however, the Dart Billet block I will be using will have very little blow by and should seal much better than your run of the mill assembly line motor.

Dry sump & a belt driven vac pump together would be optimin, but the stage 7 dry sump pump will still evac. Your doing it right

Kurt Urban designed the setup I will be using on my Dart Billet Block... He is pretty smart when it comes to building these types of engines.

He told me that we will not have any need for a belt driven vacuum pump this year... I have one already that I used to run.

From what he has told me the design of the Billet block is so much better that it will not need the vacuum pump and that the 7 stage dry sump will be more than sufficient.

Cool! But dude, you're building a new motor? You're already in the SEVENs; where the hell do you go from there?

...on a side note; I bought the Bobaflex album after hearing their song on your video. Good band...

The only place to go is FASTER! We are shooting for the 6's this year...

I love that song, and if you listen to the words, it is kinda a response to the people that were faster before me that I beat... there were videos of people calling me out and I wanted to respond.

Glad you enjoyed the video and the song!
