I was wondering what other people have done with there PCV hose when running the webber 32/36. The pcv hose ran to a plastic base plate on the stock carby as you dont use this with the weber I was wondering if i should tap into the side of my adaption plate or is there some were on the carb its self to run this hose?

For some reason I never actually saw my PCV valve huh.gif

BUT, i retained the plastic base plate with the adaptor i used. What adaptor plate are you using? Im kinda perplexed by it myself, but i know its works,lol.

When I chopped up my stock air cleaner housing, I just put a breather on the valve cover.

Go to AutoZone or some other place and look for the ricer section. wink.gif they are called valve cover breathers.

I made my own adaptor plate at work I used a block of alluminium. My boss told mr that it was a good idear to make the block as tall as i can because some good HP gains can be had just from extending the hight of the carb to the intake manafold. I went a little over the top and didn't have the space to include the stock plasic space aswell.

As for the PCV hose there is one that comes off the rocker cover thats an easy fix. Its the hose that comes from the crank case that I was wondering about. I just wanted to tap a fitting onto the side of the adaptor block but wasn't sure if this was the best way to go about it. The stock plasic plate takes the pcv hose from the side then routs the air through the plasic block finaly coming out as two holes just under the primary butterfly.

hummm, looks good. Your IM is diffrent than mine since you dont have CVCC so that might explain it. What about hooking up a catch can like on a turbo car?

couldn't you just drill a small hole in the bottom of the air filter, and screw in some sort of AN fitting with a nipple for a hose??

might work..
