he feed it to the turbo instead of the 100 deg F
under hood air?

Paul Lamar egged it on:
Really Dave. Shame on you :)

Dave Leonard replied:
True True.  I should be ashamed.  Russell, does
that mean you have
volunteered to come over do the fiberglass work?
 :-)

I suppose that would depend greatly on:
1. Where the plane work is.
2. When you have time to teach me composites.
3. Whether my wife will let me.

Have you any suggestions for a rotary PCV system using
a turbo? Have not seen it covered in my yr of
following your posts. And is there a better term to
replace "crankcase" in this acronym?
regards, Robert

To my knowledge nobody has dealt with that. Blow by does not seem to be a large
if any  problem in AC use. Not like there is windage on the crankshaft.
