PCV Valve
Hello guys,I was wondering if you can help.I installed a 1975 chevy 350 on my 1986 pontiac trans-am.I installed an edelbrock proformer intake and a 600 cfm carb.I was wondering if i can eliminate the PCV valve because i wanted to use a breather instead.

Re: PCV Valve
pcv helps keep the oil cleaner, no reason not to run it.

Re: PCV Valve
Keep the PCV. It will help keep harmful contaminants from condensing in your oil, and it won't vent so much oil vapour all over your valve covers.

Re: PCV Valve
you can get breathers with pcv valves built into them.
