MG MGA - MGA Crankcase Ventilation!

Very interesting article in NAMGAR magazine MGA! (July/August 2022 edition) on MGA crankcase ventilation by Bob Shafto. Contrary to what we have been led to believe for years!

I don't get to see that. Can you give a summary?

Air goes up the draft tube into the tappet cavity into the rocker cavity into the air filter into the engine! Not the other way. Very detailed paper.

This rather interesting article gives me pause to wonder whether my RC vent system is working. How have others who at using pancake style air filters accomplishing RC ventilation? Thanks. Jud

There is still a lot of speculation about whether Mr.Shafto is correct in all his investigations.
