blower intake ?

[325bob]

I'm rigging up a powerdyne blower on my m54, I'm guessing I need to do something with the crankcase vent hose on the intake pipe, as a vacuum isn't going to be there anymore?

Catch can to atmosphere? Route to exhaust with check valve? Old Dinan/Ford 3 way valve to intake like on original Dinan kits?

The catch can sounds simple enough, working on the longer belt now.

You will sometimes get an oil smell in the cabin with the atmospheric vent. Some people instead recirculate and retain a vacuum pull.

If you vent to atmosphere and have the dipstick tube with the stock drain stem on it, you can drain the can to it. Drilling a 1/4 inch hole through the dipstick tube just after the tube passes through the top of the pan is a good idea. The vent assists with draining since the dipstick tube is submerged in oil.
