() Date: February 18, 2005 09:17PM Guys: Thanks for the helpful hints on the oil filler tube caps; the guys at CarQuest found one that has a nipple on the side, so I can run a hose to a PCV in an aircleaner housing. The cap is even Chrome (Part no. 36005 if anyone needs the number; only cost $8.50). The bad news is that it is listed as a Ford Part ...... shhhhhh.... don't tell anyone I have a Ford part on my Corvair! Gary Hoffman p.s. I had to start a new caption series, because I thought it would be inappropriate to use the work "nipple" in the same series where the word "Hooters" appeared.

() Date: February 19, 2005 06:11PM Gary...there are 2 parts to a Positive Crankcase Ventilation system The part you bought is the KV hose [ allows filtered air to enter engine ] The PC valve / orifice needs to come from the Crankcase to the intake manifold [ constant full vacuum ]. But this requires the connection at the back of the block..and you MUSt have the oil separator inside to avoid sucking oil...or the Valve cover... ![]() That's why Chet mentioned the PU ones.....you can make your own... weld a 3/8" NPT bung on the lower portion of the filler tube......with a "deflector" with holes coming from below the port...
