Default Re: PCV VALVE SYSTEM for 8BA with Early Intake Manifold

Well thank you DD and Heard for your excellent work here, super good info.

I have a scenario which I imagine could be quite common. I have found an Offenhauser 1079 4bbl intake which is for the early 32-48 Flatty, mine is a 1951 Flatty. As you see in the picture the 2 ports at the front are not drilled out, but are easily cut out to fit the road draft tube and oil fill/breather tube. My plan is to install the oil fill/breather and then drill/tap the road draft area to fit the PCV valve....and the million dollar question ($600,000 CDN) is...do you know a good PCV valve, similar to what you have chosen, that has a threaded base on it rather than utilizing a rubber grommet?

Appreciate any guidance you may offer.

Cheers
