Hi
I have an English flathead v8, a Ford Pilot. Originally it had a 21 stud 85 hp motor. I have a Frenchk v8 block with an integral cast bell housing I think like the 59A but the front and innerds of the motor are 8BA. I have an offehhousser inlet with a 4 barrel holley. Regarding the crank case venting from reading several posts it is different to earlier cars. I want to fit a pcv valve coming off the draft tube. Problem is there are 2 take offs on the manifold. Which one do I plug it into? The front one appears to be entering the valve chamber on the passenger side on a LHD car directly above a hole from thevalve chamber into the crank case close to the cam timing gear. Is there supposed to be a tube to connect this hole to the take off in the manifold. Or would the pcv valve go into the rear hole in the manifold which vents into the valve chamber on the drivers side of a LHD car. Any help regarding the above would be appreciated.
Regards Marcus
