Pittbull, I checked all the F23 mounts we have here, including an old old one, in the jig. all the same. so next item. did you try dropping the tire pressure and if so, did it make a difference? In your first email to me you said "albeit with less wheel hop" and now you say it hasnt changed. So I am looking for things that you can try via remote internet that do make a difference. Tire pressures is one such thing. thanks

Yeah I emailed you back about it yesterday and haven't gotten a response. I'd prefer to conduct customer support privately if you don't mind. I await your email.

no problem. Just so you know, I worked Saturday and Sunday about 12 hours each day on customer car emergency issues, and cut the grass, and managed to deliver an engine block and option B to various customers on the way to a family dinner . I logged on half an hour ago and saw your post.

so you have the update here; when you email me with the tire pressure results I will reply to you, but please keep in mind that tomorrow is a busy day being Monday and there si lots of shipping to get done.

Huh? no. welding?
pull the pcv nipple and tap the rocker cover is preferred for a nice install. Depending on the inlet tube, a weld in /epoxy in/ push in fitting ; mount the seperator, bracket and hardware provided, and change the dipstick for the new one provided. If you have a laminova thats the longest pita part.

This is the Redline install. I have changed the hose routing in and out but thats the basic set up.

or maybe just tap the hole and put a set screw in with some thread lock for safety.

makes no sense whatsoever to do that, wont do anything to help your situation. and extra screws in the oil pan are retarded lol.


Your situation requires a check valve, they came in yesterday, i tapped them last night, have to go get fittings for them later tomorrow after a pulley swap, and then I can ship them out. plug and play

Welllll, I just figured since you're making an oil pan for me, it would help keep the drain under the oil level at all times.
