Crankcase vent hose to air guide?

Recommended Posts

I couldn't find a straight answer in search, one poster implicitly recommended but I want to be sure.

L28 in 240z, running SU carbs, the PCV connection on my balance tube is nonexistent (either filled in or came that way), and I just have the crankcase tube hanging out with no hose attached to it. I also have a hose connection not used on the SU air guide, on the inner side opposite the PCV, since no air pump is installed.

Could/should I connect a hose from the crankcase vent to the air guide, without worrying about any pressure related issues?

On L engine, it is Ok to run it with mini air filter at both end. (you might see few drips of oil coming out depending on your blow by volume.

You've got nothing to worry about by connecting it to the airbox, that's how it's meant to hook-up. Or you can do what esprist said and use a small aftermarket filter. Be sure to then plug the holes on the back of the airbox, as they bypass the filter element.
