Lord of the Flies
I was browsing MikesXS last night when I saw a PCV reed valve that claimed a slight HP increase due to the fact that it created a slight vacuum inside the crankcase.
(Cage)Racers have been doing this for years, except that they use vacuum pumps to get even more crankcase vacuum (20 in or so). On large V-8's, you can get over 20 HP increase with low tension rings and a strong vacuum pump. In Pro Stock, they use low amperage electric motors to run their pumps. The good thing is that this is basically FREE HP, that comes with an increase in gas mileage.
Has anyone heard of a vaccum pump, powered by an electric motor, that would be suitable for MC use?? I imagine you could get 2-3 free HP with it.
