6V92 Detroit

[timvasqz]

probably ok to use aftermarket systems just a good idea to look at
the possible failures. things like crank case vents blowing 100%
verticle is to keep the wet stuff from settling on the bends and
walls and scumming up the vent. the other engineering design is to
route it past the exhaust to help vapor off the condensation and
keep the oil in the tube hot and flowing. when you change the
dynamics I always wonder what engineered calc you stand in the way
of. boats vent most everything out the exhaust because the
compartment is closed special attention is adressed to gas engines.
If there is a issue you would be the one who could build scenario
case to prove correctness.
