Engine Serial Number Decode and Crankcase Ventilation

Read this for info on converting from draft tube to PCV (valve calibration is different for 170 vs. 225, not for earlier/later), and this post for what to do about the poor-quality chrome valve-cover-shaped trinket (it matters to the subject at hand).

OK. I looked. I will get an OEM valve cover...(got any?) SO if I get the OEM Valve cover, I can just stick the PCV on the breather and run a hose to the carb?

So I thought I had replied, but seems it didn't go... I will obtain an OEM valve cover and the PCV cap. If you have an OEM PCV, I would buy it from you...OBTW, still have the A/C unit you sold me in the box in the garage...getting close now and will be installing it this spring

225 - 225 CID

R - Regular fuel recommended.

What is the casting date on the block?

But don't all 170 and 198 all stamped 225 ?

Definitely not.
