61 PCV emission valve

Re: 61 PCV emission valve

I purchased my 61 270hp car in '68. I am second owner. It is a California car with PVC smog stuff. None of the fittings are painted they are plated a sliver gray color. The hose to the base of the back carb has AC markings in white.

What part number is stamped on the valve? It will be small font size; you will probably need a magnifying glass to see it clearly.

John;

I thought I sent a reply acknowledging yours to clarify that I was only referring to the "Draft Tube" end as a point of reference. I know there isn't a draft tube parse, but I didn't know from my bean what to call that end of the connection. It appears some other replies on this thread were dropped off too. So what did I do? swear? or say some politically incorrect word? Maybe the word "Draft" is sensitive to some Dodger fans out there, Ha!

Re: 61 PCV emission valve

Jo, I just went to the shed to look for the number on the PVC valve. All I could see was a circle on the body of it. I must also apoligise because I may have mislead some readers of the board. The PVC valve itself is actually black in color-don't know if it was a type of plating or paint. The cone shaped piece that goes into the block that the PVC valve attaches to is silver/gray plated. Next serious engine clean, when I have the shielding off, I'll have a closer look at the valve for numbers. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
