Just cut a hole about 1" in diameter in the back of one of the valve covers and put in a rubber grommet that the PCV valve will slip into snugly. Make a sheet metal baffle to fit inside the valve cover to prevent oil splash from getting pulled in by the vacuum. Some PCV's have a 90 degree elbow built on that will help with firewall clearance. Run a 3/8" diameter vacuum line to the port in front of the distributor. If necessary, drill and tap the vacuum port in the manifold to 3/8" pipe, and install a tee with reducers down to 1/4" NPT on both sides. Run the power brake hose to one side and the PCV hose to the other. Use a vented oil filler cap to get air into the crankcase. Jerry
