OK, which inlet pipe has what qualities.

I know the older Samcos used to collapse, do the newer ones do so too?

Which would you buy, and why?

Steven,

Do you have a catch tank? If so then just use some stainless tubing and samco's.

If not then buying a catch tank and the parts to make your own inlet is still cheaper than the SAMCO/PM/MRT/AVO part plus you won't be sucking all those fumes and oil vapour back into the engine.

You know it makes sense.

Got a catch can, currently being plumbed in whilst inlet is off

Thinking of the steel inlet, but my welding isnt in the saem league as Davids, and i would like to retain the recirulating element.

Think i might make a trip to my local blacksmith, see what he can do for me.

Thanks Andrew

Want me to bring my spare inlet pipe to Elvington on Sunday Steven?

All you needs a 90 degree Samco hose.

Alan, that would be very nice of you if you did, how much do you want for it, mail me offline.

I am looking forward to meeting you again anyway, and seeing your car, so as to compare with mine.

See you Sunday Alan
