Hi guys, Does anyone know of any company that makes polution control valve(PCV) kits for my 8BA engine? Thanks in advance. Stan

Da Tinman · 05-13-2010, 01:20 AM

use Dorman #493-212 grommit in the road draft tube hole, its a bit loose but with some sealer its good to go, and get a pcv valve for a 3.8 liter buick, run line to manifold vaccuum and call it done.

Thank You. It sounds so easy. Stan

I bought a couple off ebay that are a machined piece of aluminum with the pcv valve glued into it and o-ring on the outside, fits tightly into the road draft tube hole. Includes a tee and length of rubber hose. Don't have the sellers name but might be able to go digging for it.

I bought one from him three years ago - nice item. He is in Canada and at that time his eBay ID was gunn12. Just searched and he does not show up right now.

I bought one of the PCV valve kits on offered on Ebay on 10/8/09. The seller was Ross Gunning who sells under the name of "gunn12". His e-mail address is [email protected]. The price was $28.50 + $6.95 shipping. It's a nice kit - IMHO - and I would buy another if the need arises.

Good luck with your project. Hope this helps.

Hello Ross Gunning here(gunn12). I have just become a member to the Ford barn. I sell PCV valve kits for the 49-53 Ford/Mercury flatheads. I have just put a listing on E-bay for them ( E-bay item #330433810380)
Please feel free to take a look. I do sell direct should you miss the auction. Just a pat on the back here...To date I have sold over two hundred fifty of these with no complaints.
Thank you for your interest, Ross

Da Tinman · 05-15-2010, 12:33 AM

No offense Dude, but my way is less than 15 bucks.

Grommit is 6 bucks with tax, valve is 3 bucks with tax, hose is a couple bucks.

I came up with a little different PCV setup for my Merc. I am going to run an electric fuel pump, so I used an early fuel pump stand and modified it for a PCV valve under it. This also lets me use a molded hose and hide it in the rear of the engine.

It actually stands for Positive Crankcase Ventilation, not polution control valve.

Newaygo Kid · 05-19-2010, 12:10 PM

I ran a electric fuel pump on my 36 took the road draft tube off and running a offy intake made a plate out of aluminum polished it and fitted a grommet and buick pvc all for less than 5 bucks. Chris

Karl Wolf · 05-19-2010, 12:27 PM

I took out the oil fill and the road draft tubes to put a Merc manifold on a 59ab... Freeze plugs fit these two holes, upside down, drilled one and put a pcv valve (1/4" pipe) from a 250 c.i. engine in line with a Rochester 2cv Carb... Works well... Karl

That's a neat way to do it. Question; how did you plug the blow by (road draft tube) hole in the front of the intake?

Great info, will try it .Bob

V8 Bob · 05-19-2010, 02:11 PM

Bob/Ohio,
In addition to Vic's question, where does the air enter, and how does it flow through the engine?

Bob/Ohio · 05-19-2010, 05:16 PM

V8 Bob,I still have the stock breather tube in the front of the intake to draw in fresh air. Vic, I left the stock road draft tube on for looks, but I turned out plastic plug and drove it in the lower end of the draft tube, and painted it black.

That's a neat idea, I might try that on our '53 F-100 Panel Truck.

Bob/Ohio · 05-19-2010, 06:55 PM

Just another way of doing the same old thing! I just wanted to hide things in the back of the engine, and not have a long hose on top of the engine.
