Default Re: Fresh rebuilt 8BA Flathead

Man, your engine is gorgeous. I also like the black. It appears to be an 8BA-type ('49-'53). If so, how is it going to breathe (relieve crankcase pressure) without the original road draft tube? Has it possibly been built with a PCV valve incorporated somehow? If that black piece at the rear of manifold is a vent, you must be planning on an electric fuel pump....? Welcome to FordBarn! DD
