Re: blow by gauge??
Up until a couple days ago I was using an old single gauge (think it was Milton ?) but threw it away when it gave me 2 way different #'s on the same hole. I ordered a dual gauge OTC that hasn't got here yet.
EDIT: Whoops, sorry bout that. Never seen one of those. http://www.jegs.com/i/B%26amp%3BB/128/40375/10002/-1

Re: blow by gauge??
Have used one since 1979 when Ted Flack loaned me one from Chrysler It was Fisher Porter flow meter I coppied all the numbers off it and bought a few for some racers, it was around $ 400.00 in 1980. Very high quality unit. Hamburger tried to copy with a cheap plastic unit but was way off on readings from the Fisher Porter unit. We used on wet sump engines the difference on 347 Mopar Comp engine from 1 1/2 cfm to 6 cfm was about 60 hp on 750 hp engine. A dry sump motor is hard to measure!
