« on: November 04, 2020, 09:01:50 AM »
I have a question about crankcase venting my valve covers have a 4"ish long by 1" wide offenhauser style breather in the middle of each valve cover i was also running a breather cap on the oil fill tube at the front of the intake as well as a rear intake breather. Should i run a pvc in place of the rear intake breather tube?

Member Projects / 66 Fairlane Reborn
« on: October 25, 2020, 05:01:01 AM »
Hi all I am still pretty new to this forum and people on here have been very helpful with question's

around 2 years ago now i imported my 1966 fairlane hardtop to Australia. It was a 390 4b c6 car drum brakes all round.
First thing done was changing the brakes. I use Australia xf front brakes and stub axles and the steering tie rods to new Australia Xr falcon ones along with a remote brake booster mounted on the left hand side inner Wheel well.

That gave me vented front discs car was then lowered front and rear quite abit from stock diff was narrowed to fit 10/15 with 265 50 bf goodrich rubber and 8/15 225 50 fronts
fiberglass hood came shortly after that it did get it painted blue but i have lost the photo's of that.

Overall car looked pretty solid some slight bubbling of paint around the rear wheel well along with stress cracks at the top of the rear quarters and start of the C pillar.

FE Technical Forum / Oil in Water
« on: February 20, 2018, 03:24:05 AM »
I have oil in my water. I have owned my 390 fairlane for little over 2 years now when i bought the car i flushed most of the antifreeze out and replaced it with premixed coolant. That was about 18 months ago. There is no water in my sump there has never been water in my sump but my water is milky/black and thick with what looks like engine oil. i'm not sure if it is a reaction with the coolant i used and what was left of the antifreeze or something else its got me stumped.
can oil get into an fe water jacket with out water going into the oil/sump.
