Re: 6v53 GM blower
Fundamentally you need a vacuum source to run a PCV. Manifold vacuum is the usual source. With the supercharger attached the only point you will have anything like that is somewhere beneath the throttle plates and the the rotors in the supercharger .
Perhaps a fitting between the carbs into the top of the blower and then a hose to the back of the block where the original fuel pump is fitted, if you can still access that point.

That'll work fine from above the blower

Re: 6v53 GM blower
Thanks, This sounds good.
I kept thinking that I would have to set up some type of vaccum/boost sensitive valve on the manifold below the blower and the other idea I was told was to run up into the aircleaners which I did not want to do. The NA setup tapped into the fuel pump stand/breather and It looks that I may have room behind to run it out of the rear of the new stand.

Got my first castings back for the 6v53 about an hour ago. Still have casting sand etc on them.
Busy weekend of machining...

Re: 6v53 GM blower
Will follow this with great interest.
Loved the boat as it was, adding a blower will certainly give the Y block a bit of "hurry up".

Re: 6v53 GM blower
Very nice, I'm a big fan of fins!
Do you have plans to make an inlet manifold? Would love to see a high rise open blower manifold to show off that valley cover !

Re: 6v53 GM blower
Wow.....those parts look like they are going to turn out nice
What is the long cast plate on the left in the pic fit?? I am guessing that the blower and valley cover are Y Block.
I am keen to see these finished

Re: 6v53 GM blower
Bates,
I didn't see the rear end plate cover peaking out from behind the blower before. Do you have a picture of it and is it plain or finned?

Re: 6v53 GM blower
Found a crummydoor snout today, so I'll look into moding that.
Still looking for a manifold, see what I can come up with (now to find a new motor to set it all up on before the change over )
