Hi Everyone,
I've read a few threads that are close to what I am needing help with. There are a couple of differences that I should explain.
The motor in question is a 347 stroker. It has a Holley Truck Avenger carb setup.
The previous owner installed a PCV valve toward the back of the passenger valve cover without connecting it to anything.
I purchased an aftermarket Holley air cleaner assembly complete with knock-outs in the base.
I believe that what I have been reading is that the PCV valve should be plumbed to the base of the carburetor or intake. Or, should it be plumbed to the base of the air cleaner?
If plumbed to the carburetor I'm assuming the tube ID connecting the two should be 3/8" ID to match the connector on the PCV valve. If attaching to the air cleaner the choice isn't so clear as the elbow provided with the air cleaner is .70".
And maybe while I'm asking for help, it might be good to confirm the correct PCV valve. The valve that I pulled from the valve cover is a 3133216. I don't really come up with anything when I Google that number, though. I'm not sure if it is sized for the 347 or the 302, or if it even makes any difference.
Thanks to anyone who has been through this same thing.
Jeff
