Crankcase vacuum pumps
Somebody was on track to trying this. Looks to be significant hp gains.

Re: Crankcase vacuum pumps
Yeah, I thought Pete was looking into this or had already looked into it. I may be mistaken but I remember this coming up before. As with anything not designed for the LT5 I wonder how it would handle being spun north of 6800 rpm on a regular basis?

Re: Crankcase vacuum pumps
I seem to recall someone saying Corey Henderson had done some research on this. I've been planning to try the pan-evac route, already have extra O2 bungs in place for tuning purposes which would work for this.
