What actually is a Provent and what does it do?

Nice Andy, great place for it, wish i could put mine there, sometime down the track i will though, you may want to fit a heat guard to stop heat from the Turbo effecting the Provent and once you get the plumbing gear, turn the Provent to face the air box so you don't have to run the hoses over the Turbo.

Hi Craig
A bunch of us,50 I belive are fitting them for the good Dr Ben (AKA Isuzurover) for his studies at Curtain Uni.
You must have missed the offer

Ah, you'd be wanting the 'all things Provent' section.

Hi Baz
SOMEWHERE I have a Series3 Landy exhaust heat shield.Its perfect for the job,just couldnt put my hands on it,somewhere in the back of my ser3 in the shed.
The Provent isnt quite as close to the turbo as it looks in the pic,the inertia switch dont get fried,and reading the fitting instructions its designed to be bolted to the engine block.
Going to run the inlet pipe along the top of the firewall above the aircon lines so they will be well clear of the turbo and heat shield.
Will buy heat specific hose rather than standard stuff.
All that oil on the turbo heat shield ran out of the exsisting hose whilst I was seeing how it fits rotating it 180deg.
A pair of 90deg elbows are needed to get the hoses where I want them.

Nice bracket - I'm amazed all the effort you went to with the bracket!

I routed my hoses with nice joiners, straight runs, clips, very posh, neat and tidy then made the ****test bracket on earth using wire and oddments. 1,500 k later and it is still secure, sure to outlast religion!
