Brian,

You could simply be getting more from =E2=80=98extra=E2=80=99 oil now =
being in the rocker cover area as a direct result of the roller rockers. =
The rocker rockers will =E2=80=98bleed=E2=80=99 more oil than std bush =

OK FOT mates

I'm almost afraid to ask.

=20

Was draining the crankcase vent catch can last night on the GT6, has one =
event worth of oil in it (MOSPORT). wasn't very smart about draining it, =
wasn't expecting anything to speak of so just put a rag under it. Well, =
not too good at judging an oil mess on the floor, but guess it looks =
like maybe a good cup? This is more than I have had before, but this is =
a new catch can.

=20

I have the vent from the valve cover and off a take off plate mounted =
from where the mechanical fuel pump both plumbed into the catch can.

=20

 This seemed like a lot, and was more than typical, but I was running =
well and strong, hotter with new roller rockers (blah blah, sis boom =
bah)

=20

Comments? Symptom of?

=20

Thanks - will be at PittRace in about 24hrs, but do't want a major fail =
from ignorance/inexperiance

Brian,
I have my vent catch tank set-up designed to allow the "vented oil" from
the catch can to gravity feed back down into the main oil galley. There are
a few different ways to do that and it works good. It makes the venting
more effective due to the circular flow and the oil is not lost, never
needs to be drained and stays in the motor to be used.
Good luck.

I'm from the school of thought that if oil gets blown out of the engine, it's milky, full of condensation, and has no business going back into my motor! If you are putting enough oil on the catch tank that you NEED to drain it back into the motor, something is not right.

Brian, one cup of oil in the catch tank after running a Mosport weekend is not a lot of oil. Think of the amount of time you had that throttle at WFO over the course of the weekend... That's the beauty of Mosport!

Hmm. Interesting.
I'm actually in the process of trying to give the Zippy Car more venting at
the top of the rockers and was going to copy the way I have it on the
yellow car.
I have a sealed tube that exits at the front of the valve cover and wraps
around the back to the other side where there is a tank (with a foam filter
inside) mounted to the where the stock fuel pump would go.
So I supposed it flowed towards below the back end of the camshaft
It never occurred to me that the oil could get wet or milky.
This has seemed to work well???
I can't say I have seen any evidence of moisture or poor oil color inside
the tank.  .
Your comments have me now wondering if there may be a better way.
I'm willing to try something different so I would be interest in more info
on the topic of valve cover venting on the 6 Cylinder.
Thanks!

To elaborate,
Perhaps my description left out the important detail.
There is an additional tube that comes off the top of that tank which I
described already.
That goes to an air vented can way down below.
I suppose that one could contain undesirable oil.
But there is never anything in there.
I should have mentioned that in both of my previous posts.
Does that sound better Henry?

Jason, if your system is working, is there any value in changing it? It sounds like your setup could be better described as an oil recovery system, and it works so well the actual dump can never gets anything in it! I have seen a bunch of cars run through tech with similar systems. 

I admit I am at the beginning of the learning curve on Triumph 6 cylinder engines. I plumbed the TR250 racer the same as my TR4, and after plodding around the track for two race weekends, so far so good.

On my old TR4 racer, the catch can was plumbed with two lines. One from the rocker cover, the other from a bung welded to the fuel pump  blanking plate. The catch can was custom built, a steel box that fit really nicely on the shelf above the old pedal box. I always thought the issue was the catch can was so big and so far away from the engine, the can never really heated up, and the moisture was condensation. Before I figured out sealing head gaskets, that catch can saw a lot of use!
