Ever wonder what that buzzing noise was coming from inside a Pro Stocker before they fired up? It's a Pro Stock secret... at least until we told everybody! That noise is coming from an electric vacuum pump. It's purpose is to evacuate the engine cases of unwanted pressures and make the piston rings seal better. The result is my favorite thing... HORSEPOWER! Well... almost my favorite thing.
Features:
Oil-less operation
Permanently lubricated bearings
Built-in cooling fan for constant use
Convenient mounting tabs
Closed housing and motor
Stainless valves and aluminum valve plate
Die cast aluminum head and diaphragm hold down plate
Balanced for smooth, low vibration operation
Long-life diaphragmHelps prevents oil leaks

Cheap money... easy installation... increased horsepower...

Wouldnt one of those things for a fish tank do the same?

Alright, after all this it seems all you have to do is connect both pcv/vc vent sources and then connect them through a pcv to a constant vacuum source. Yes?

i think the problem is that you need it to be ok to get some water in it, unlike a fish tank one... and a fish tank thing goes the wrong way... it blows air and you need to suck air...

it also may not be enough vacuum...

did anyone ever figure out how much vacuum we need?

well there should be no need for a pcv valve btwn the can and the intake. Boost doesnt come out of the intake. The pcv valves are to keep boost out of the can/block.

Ok. Here is my current (and very simple) setup. I don't have pre intake pipe (filter directly on compressor inlet), so I do that.
There isn't PCV valve anymore.

Please comment ...

There's really no point in connecting the other port on your catch can to your valve cover, unless you didn't have a breather filter or didn't want to buy one. I guess a hose is cheaper. Setup should be fine.

Thanks

So it would be a better idea to use a breather filter on the valve cover, and don't use the second port of the catch can.
