PCV location

[Snake]

Can it be on the left or right valve cover,sorry dumb question but.:cheers:

Ethier caover would do, but I beileve the drivers side would be the most correct side to install it. Does it matter or is it just one of "I wonder?" things.

Thanks rumblefish360 ,ya my holley port is on the right side of the baseplate.Thanks

It don't really matter which side it's on as long as the breather is on the other side. That way it vents through the system.

 

[rumblefish360]

Amen. Good point.

Well I plan on the right side due to were the port is.I dont think to many car buffs will see it as I plan on not having my hood open to much at shows due to the paint not matching the out side of the car,and yes this paint issue still bugs me.

the engine runs clockwise . The airflow does too. Breather on left, or drivers side, pcv on the other. It dont make a lot of difference. There is enough stuff on the left already. Manifold veacuum port, throttle linkage, etc etc.
PCV tube almost stands alone on the right side. Just my .02

Interesting

As was said... doesnt matter as long as the breather is opposite it.

Don't feel bad... My firewall is black, and I put the engine back in before I decided what color to paint it.....

On the other hand, my car isn't painted, doesn't run, and I am pulling my hair out as we speak :cheers:

If you are using an aftermarket V/C make sure it has baffles under the pvc & breather, if not, make some and install., You dont want oil in your aircleaner or going down your manifold.

Good tip my last car 360 Roadrunner had no baffels that suck.Thanks for the reminder i will have a look.

Well guess what my valve covers have no baffels,my covers are the short ones and looks like no room for baffels so going to order new ones.Glad i started this topic and thanks to El5demon340 you had me thinking and went for a look.

I was wondering if anyone was going to mention the baffle placement.
