Air/Oil separators - again

[Frank]

'With apologies for being a bore on this subject but I am still scratching my head over which way to go for the F24/Ranger combination.

It seems to me that the ideal separator would be the Airwolf that deals with both the engine breather and the wet vacuum pump. However there is insufficient room to mount this high enough on the firewall for the oil to drain back into the top of the tank.

Question for the Ranger gurus -

1. Is it possible to drain into the scavenge pump/cam cover area, or anywhere lower than the top of the tank, bearing in mind that this separator uses the vacuum pump discharge air to assist the oil back to the engine and all pipes must run 'Downhill'.

2. If 1. is not a goer then perhaps the answer might be for two Airwolf 'Miniseps', one for vacuum pump and one for engine that drain to the tank but space is again very limited.

3. Failing both options perhaps a 'Minisep' for the vacuum pump which drains to the tank and an upward curving breather pipe (hump shaped) as it leaves the engine to allow oil to run back into the crank case.

- What think y'all?
