Affordable pcv addon?

here's how I added a PCV to my 292. after reading a lot as to whether it would work or not, I fab'd a housing like the pic KULTULZ showed of the separator to fit in the rear of the block. I removed part of the separator side and I added a round section to hold a PCV (FSB 302 valve). ran a 3/8" line to a fitting in the front of the manifold with an aftermarket separator after the PCV to catch any oil from entering the manifold.

So far after I would guess 1000 miles or so I've caught about 1/2 cup of oil in the separator. Runs the same and didn't even adj. the carb. I know the PCV is working because I can feel suction on the oil filler tube and no more fumes. I fab'd a new separator housing because I didn't want to alter the stock road draft set up until I knew the PCV would work.

You're ahead of the game. I never mentioned a separator as most have trouble wanting to route the PVC SYSTEM correctly.

Your is a 1960 292 2V application with a rear mounted road draft tube I am assuming? A photo of the setup would be nice unless you are waiting for a a patent ... :D

Correct on the rear road draft. sorry but I've never figured out how to post pics.
 
Ok, I'm lost! I like your jokes but please explain this one to me.... I'm not delicate and I have a great sense of humour (being 1/4 Irish) and I know human body functions but as I said I'm lost on this one.

It seems we have a SNOW FLAKE amongst us that has no sense of humor. I therefore decided to limit myself as to jokes so as not to possibly offend the delicates.

Does that help?

BTW - Which 1/4 is Irish? :D
 
!!! Eye candy !!!

Well that didn't help, PM me to educate me...I'm no snowflake! As far as being 1/4 Irish it's my musical ability, my humour, and my stubbornness!

Another contributor here (within this thread) objected to my continual references to my sex life (or lack thereof). It is he/she/it that I am referring to, not you.
 
Let's cut to the chase...is the power losses of auto trans the joke? All your other stuff I really find humourous...

No, it is an isolated factoid, showing mainly showing drag between an FMX and C4..

I took the jokes down as one or two found them offensive.

I like to have fun, but I also don't want to see this page go as H.A.M.B. has.

I meant in no way to offend anyone except possibly the OP.
 
Thanks. I tried and tried and saw no humour in that info ugh I was way out of the loop! Just sad seeing the HP loss on a C6 though...
 
So we are straightened out now? I cannot afford to have anyone else mad at me because of my age.

My Old Lady can take me down ... :(
 
Here's a solution if later pans become scarce -

Below is an ILL of an early FE road draft system and how easy it is to convert to PCV -
