PCV Valve Open

I have a holley 650 and the pcv value has no hose hooked up to it. I take it that this is not good and should be hooked up. Should this run to the canister or to the valve cover? I already have vacums running to the valve cover so would have to buy something to splice it in if I have to run the pcv to it as well.

Re: PCV Valve Open

PCV needs to be hooked up. Usually, the hose goes from the 3/8" fitting on the base of the carb or a fitting on the manifold, to the PCV valve.
