Attempting to install a PCV valve on our tri-carb engine per Norm Nock's Te=
ch Tip (page 98).=C2=A0 Made an adapter (5/8"-18 to 3/8" barb) that replace=
s the plug in the front inlet manifold.=C2=A0 3/8" hose to the PCV valve.=
=C2=A0 Two questions:

1) Does the PCV valve need to be orientated in a particular way?=C2=A0 Norm=
's diagram shows it horizontal and I have seen them on non-Healeys vertical=
 (engine side down).

2) The valve cover tee is 5/8" diameter, the engine side of the PCV valve i=
s 1/2".=C2=A0 Anyone know of a short hose with different diameters on each =
end?

Thanks.

 =C2=A0Cheers, =C2=A0Bob HaskellAustin Healey 3000 BN7/BT7 registrar_______=
