PCV Adapter

[BeBop138]

He is a pic of the VPW set up. They mentioned that the valve has to be installed up and down---by looking at the plumbing it could go either way. The parts are all tight like it was taken off an engine---wonder how this thing was hooked up?

That looks nothing like what they sent me. Here are some pics of the valve and adapter they sent me. I had to make up fittings and a hose to make it work.

Aero, in your third pic where does your connection go to? I thought it would terminate there?

PVW should have sent you a drawing and instructions,, if you do not have them, Areo or I can send them to you.

I Will have to modify what they sent---that won`t be a problem--on my second pic does the valve marked up look correct---just need to know it is facing the right direction---and where does that line going up from the intake on Areo`s third pic go? As I said I thought it terminated there----then you did the line from the oil filler tube to the air cleaner. I will take a copy of the install from VPW---send it E-mail please..........Thanks Lee

Looks like the same as mine, but I cant tell what way is up from the pic of mine, it has been awhile and I cant really look in there.

The instructions I have are in Adobe Acrobat and I don't know how to post those type of images on here or in the sites email system, send me a pm with your regular email and I will send them that way.

The connection goes to my wipers.

OK, got it. I have electric wipers, never connected the dots...........will show pics with mine done later..............Lee

Here is a pic of the valve VPW has with there kit. It says on the valve " take apart every 250 hours or 10,000 miles--wash in varnish remover install arrow up" Must be good it`s made in Minnesota LOL:D Solves the problem which way to install. I could mount the valve with a short nipple right out of my intake or the fitting where the draft tube was----I only have a run of about 12 inches with the intake I had made---do you think it makes any difference if it`s closer to the block side or intake?

Sorry forgot to add pic.....duh

[jd52cranbrook]

my bet would be no difference.

[BeBop138]

Finished up the valve today---do you think it is to close to the exhaust manifold?

[aero3113]

Should be fine,mine is about the same.

[BeBop138]

Got the oil fill tube to the carb done tonite---didn`t come out as good as I thought it would-----maybe a re-route later.
