PCV Location
Okay I'm stumped. New motor is in but having difficulty with subtle differences. My PCV no longer has a place to hook up due to brakes going to back of Holley. Should I run it to another plug on manifold, or air cleaner? Does it matter? No smog in my area and I have an aftermarket aircleaner so mods would be necessary. Thanks!

You don't have a PCV port on the carb? I'm no Holley man, but shouldn't it have the port on the front bottom?

No port on front, but on back. I plugged the brake booster into it. I'm not usually a Holley man either unfortunately.

What about moving the brake booster to the intake? You have a port on the intake at the back?

If you can't find a spot to plumb into your intake put a tee into the line you run to the booster.

You're not under driving I know??? Bad for cooling and alternator power output.

Mike - WTF did you just say? Is it just me or did that not make sense?

What he was warning him that the underdrive pulleys can create headaches. They do make better power, but your cooling ability goes down, and so does your charging....

Underdrive?
No underdrive pulleys for me, just dress up, but since you said cooling...I'm having my Hooker Super Comp's ceramic coated with the polished aluminum color, inside and out. They look sharp! and may help keep heat down. Thanks for the informative and entertaining thread (WTF-LMAO!)
