PCV ?
So i finally decided to try and hook up my pcv again (kind of important).
And i cant find my stock tube (i have the piece for the valve cover)
I was wondering since I'm running an aftermarket drop base air cleaner, how hard of an install would this be, how would i go about doing this, and where i can find a tube that would work?
Thanks in Advance
Corey

If your asking about the fresh air tube from the air cleaner base to the valve cover...I used a couple of plastic 90*s and a piece of heater hose. I found the plastic 90s with the PCV stuff at PEP BOYS...

Just use a push in filtered breather in one valve cover and run the vacuum for the pcv to the other valve cover. No real need to connect to the air filter.

Re: PCV ? (yellow 72)
well for the longest time i only used two breathers on the valve covers because of my crappy setup for the motor, I'll snap some pictures in the morning. I have a huge demon carb (dimension wise not cfm size) and it would hit my vaccum plug on the back of the manifold so i had to put a y adapter for the vaccum check valve (wiper door) and the kick down for the tranny and plug that into the back of the carb. so there is where i lost my main route for the PCV. i wanted to run it like the stock pcv (from valve cover to air cleaner base) but i couldnt find my stock tube, nor would my stock base fit over a demon. My current drop base Air cleaner has a punch out hole for a pcv, i just have no way of hooking it up.
I would like to keep my engine compartment looking clean instead of having to wipe it down after a long run
