Although it was a pristine stock example when i had it, I should've modded my '92 GS-R more when I had it. You could just tell whoever designed it; had begrudgingly made it to meet fuel economy. But you could always tell; it was begging for parts to be thrown at it These engines are truly designed to be gone through to hammer down all the "rough" edges, to maximize what they are. You can just tell when you take 'em apart.
Honda was the first company I heard of that had the cheif engineer of their F1 group go to the production engine group to exchange ideas in it's engine development. This would explain the Easter Eggs hidden here and there. It also explains why there's not a lot of easy HP by swapping an intake or headers for big gains like in the 70's and 80's when I was racing. They've been in F1 since the late 60's and their V8 F1 defied the laws of physics in the valvetrain as it was explained running around 14K RPM. Capable of 20K RPM but the limiter was set at 15K with pneumatic valvetrain. Racers are now using a vac pump on the crankcase to find a marginally better piston seal at the ring pack. Venting the crankcase is good, a vacumm is better. All very interesting stuff. th-cam.com/video/mOzHVwPr6NU/w-d-xo.html
to be honest... i also route it to catch can, but as i researched pcv more to let me make this video with confidence? i learned alot too!! just like you 😏 ....i think my initial plan now is reconnect pcv to block and intake (helps on vacuum and part throttle) but still have the other hose (2 back block) to catch can so it does "both" jobs of part throttle and full throttle breathing
Another very informative video. It has also the animation part for better understanding. Awesome. Venturi is a also a Monaco-based automotive manufacturer, founded in 1984. I like the ending with some revving and nice aero-engine sound. :) Thumb up.
thanks for the comment and yes nice you mention Venturi... when i was a kid i had an F1 Jordan toy and it had "venturi" sticker sponsor i thought back then it was just equipments i find out its an automotive manufacturer :) nice History there
Good Video! I have to deal with this soon, note how the SOHC left intake side drain in the head has a raised edge on the left port. not allowing for oil to drain down unless it reaches the correct level. this is the one that takes the black breather box, probably trying to keep oil out of that port for the PCV.
Wow very very nice observation u are the few that noticed that... i guess a fellow sohc lover is found here :) i agree on oil level it is why my example was running first gear/second gear level goes up :) maybe we dont want the breather gargling oil :) and based on what i said here? we continue/keep the pcv to intake manifold no problem on high comp turbo or all motor BUT we add 1 or 2 more fittings for a hose to the breather this way it helps as we dont route valvecover breather to intake anymore. but it is letting it breath on those extra lines and glad the block hole is atleast twice the size of the pcv hose so we know it gets "full" but we keep the pcv for idle and part throttle an idea shared so you can do a video of it when u deal with it soon :) Thank you
Thaaaanks buddy! actually before i made the video i actually researched a bit to be sure of my info and honestly i actually learned more too! made it even better to share :)
Those little dumbo filters everyone uses on their valve covers will turn your car into a smoker.... I learned this back in like 2009 but never knew the science behind it.
we do really need the pcv valve our can we put the ventilation directly to the catch can? I have mine connect to catch can and the catch can connect to intake manifold (the catch can is sealed). i ask that because the crank vapors are hot and we want fresh air into the cylinders.. thanks
@@JA_S_ON maaaan glad someone realizes this :) gettin kinda worried lots tricks and ideas are already in the channel… but I’m glad it’s “scattered” so folks gotta binge watch to see the gems haha

So true it’s like a “toned down” ready to be race modded engines

Never thought about PVC for performance gains. I just vented to catch can. Rerouting into intake got me thinking.🤔👍

@@SRDmotorsports Agree, they had some nice sports cars. :)

maybe we dont want the breather gargling oil :)
and based on what i said here? we continue/keep the pcv to intake manifold no problem on high comp turbo or all motor
BUT we add 1 or 2 more fittings for a hose to the breather
this way it helps as we dont route valvecover breather to intake anymore. but it is letting it breath on those extra lines and glad the block hole is atleast twice the size of the pcv hose so we know it gets "full"
but we keep the pcv for idle and part throttle
an idea shared so you can do a video of it when u deal with it soon :) Thank you
Really appreciate these videos for info 👍🏼

Wow... its amazing video...
No thank u very much ones again for all this great nowlege thank u
Appriciate it man for real! And it’s the good stuff that there’s no need to spend tons right
👍👍👍
Those little dumbo filters everyone uses on their valve covers will turn your car into a smoker.... I learned this back in like 2009 but never knew the science behind it.
So true … I guess cuz some think it looks like a racing filter, it must be ayt 😂
we do really need the pcv valve our can we put the ventilation directly to the catch can?
I have mine connect to catch can and the catch can connect to intake manifold (the catch can is sealed).
i ask that because the crank vapors are hot and we want fresh air into the cylinders..
thanks
That’s okay that’s how oem is…
@@SRDmotorsports but it's possible to breathe the crank case directly to catch can without connect to the intake manifold? This setup as any drawback?
@@prasquete no drawback it’s just not pulling anything it’s just breathing out
@@SRDmotorsports thanks
@@prasquete no probs man

By making this video earlier, now let’s me complete it in relation to the Crankcase Evacuation vid of recent! Yehey! :)
@@SRDmotorsports sounds good, I’m catching up on your older videos when I have the chance. Lotsa gems/knowledge shared here!
