I really loved the video. I'm a old school fan of carburetors @ points @ distributor cars 6 @ 8 cylinders, especially inline 6. I'm waiting for your film. Thank you. THURMAN MINGO
installing the PVC valve that way is a temptation to suck oil splash coming from the engine base. better to use the oil separator that is part of the draft tube. even where the PVC valve is located on a valve cover at the top, there is a baffle to avoid the splash to be sucked by the PVC circuit.
By removing the draft tube( the larger piece that fits in the engine block) you will most likely have trouble in the PCV valve blocking up with oil, even if the splash gard is in place in the block.... from what i can see the splash is there. i have been advised to place the PCV valve on the TOP of the draft tube by the same way as you have done (drill hole and use Rubber grommet that will push through to the other side of the drilled hole, ( don"t cut grommet in half, drill correct hole to fit grommet that way it will be a better fit for the grommet . (2) The way the PCV is made with the pipe at right angles ,may block up as the oil will splash up there over a period of time regds w owen
I really appreciate your input so far everything has been working real good, what I like about what I did is I still have an unmolested draft tube, if I am understanding you, you want the PCV in the highest place on the draft tube, let me know , much appreciated
@@DesertRatFabrication Hi there thanks for your reply as i am half way through doing this conversion my self , i have had plenty of advice, and that is yes it would be better higher at the top of the draft tube that way over a period of time the oil residue etc would not clog the PCV valve , you may have to have a check on the valve now and again. the design of draft tube may have been made higher like it is to stop any oil splash out of the motor . i have a 1949 Styline sedan with a 1956/62.. 235 engine it is right hand drive Canadian conversion for in New Zealand where i live same as in Australia and the UK.
No it didn’t, but I have a dual action fuel pump so the wipers get there vacuum from the pump, I also tried them on the manifold vacuum and I didn’t see any difference, I sure like having the PCV, it’s better for the engine and you don’t get the smell from the draft tube
Hi Really nice video I have a 66 Landcruiser with an F100 inline 6 engine. I get that oil smell inside the cab too. Did you notice a change after you did this mod?

Thank you I really appreciate it😀😀
Very nice, great fit you made it look like it came from the factory like that
Thank you Nick, i am very happy with the way it turned out, and now that it has been in there for awhile, i can see it really works great
@@DesertRatFabrication great I will definitely be doing that upgrade in the near future, thank you
I also have a gas filter before the gas pump...same filter you're using.
Very helpful.
That could be our next upgrade.
Thanks!!!
You bet! Eric , thanks for watching
Got to love these old trucks .Never hurts to use some modern tech. Might just do this on my 48 5 window.
Yes it’s been working real good
This is gold. Part numbers and all so useful.
Thank you much
Good job on the mod. That big adj wrench looked like it would have worked, LOL.
Thank you Dave, your video was a great help to me
These old trucks just keep giving don't they
got the charging system working then the gas gauge blew up
@@DesertRatFabrication Sounds like you got my luck, LOL.
Excellent, I need to do this mod on mine too. Thanks
Yes I really like it , much less blow-by smell in the cab, thank you for checking out the video
GREAT TRUCK U HAVE THERE MY FRIEND 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Great vid Mike
Thank you very much
Hey that’s a good idea! I’ll bet it makes a difference.
Yes i should get a pretty good idea once i drive it a little bit
THAT'S WHAT I DID ON MY 55 1 TON DUALLY 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
By removing the draft tube( the larger

@@warrenowen2920 I will check it now and again, much appreciated 👍👍
Nice mod, Mike. Looks like you need a bigger pipe wrench.😁
I know right, i was just trying to add some lite comedy to the video with all the little props, lol
Good video thx for posting-did you do an emergency brake vid for your 53? Did you buy a kit or fabricate one? I need one for my 53 3100.
Hi, did the fume smell go away when you cruise?
Do you think this will work on a 216? My truck is a 1946 Chevy.
How did you take off the tube
I probably would have butchered the road draft tube to accommodate the PCV valve
Yes it was nice to put a PCV valve in without using any of the draft tube, just in case it didn’t work
I was wondering how this was going to effect your vacuum wipers.
Doesn't seem to be any ill effects, the fuel pump does most of the wipering, lol
Did it affect how the vacuum windshield wipers work?
No it didn’t, but I have a dual action fuel pump so the wipers get there vacuum from the pump, I also tried them on the manifold vacuum and I didn’t see any difference, I sure like having the PCV, it’s better for the engine and you don’t get the smell from the draft tube
Hi
Really nice video I have a 66 Landcruiser with an F100 inline 6 engine. I get that oil smell inside the cab too. Did you notice a change after you did this mod?
It definitely did help a lot, i don't get that nasty blow by smell, and it is a lot better for the engine
@@DesertRatFabrication After I did the conversion on my old Ford it was weird to not smell oil in the car anymore. 😄
@@fairlanephantom right on brother, i know i dig it
Yes, it was actually a gag, but I thought the same thing it probably would have, lol
