You have pics of the other connection in the front?

is hard to take a pic

but one goes to the PCV Valve and the other one goes to the Port under the AC compressor

[Dan@AWD]

Has anyone removed the PCV valve completely? Does anyone know the thread size of the PCV port on the block?

[Dan@AWD]

OK. It seems Revworks catch catch eliminates the PCV. They provide a vibrant adapter to do this. Does anyone know the part # on it?

PCV system is apart of engine design and ECU tuning straight from the factory. The vacuum is factored into the normal air fuel balance. So by plugging the port the port on the intake manifold it will cause as much as a 50-150 change in RPM drop. It can also cause fuel trims to change or ECU to trigger a more rich condition.

Bottom line is that Intake manifold was designed to take incoming blow by air flow from PCV and use it. Thats the point of the valve being variable.

Don't plug the hole on the IM. And don't vent your PCV line straight to the ground, it will spray oil and unspent fuel all over the under body or on the pavement.

I see your thought process on paper but I capped the port on my intake and saw zero side effects in practice. My catch can is VTA off both lines and the only down side is stink.

Dan, I have a spare engine at the shop. Tomorrow I will pull out the PCV and see if I can find out the threads, I am interested as well.

Thanks!

Updated first post.

I would like to have a pcv valve that references manifold conditions to operate but the gases get vented to my vta can.

Looks to be 3/8 pipe threads. Not sure if its NPT or BSPT. The plunger is very easy to push up from the crank case side. This makes me believe that in a VTA setup the crank case pressure should have no problem moving this plunger up. How much flow is there is another thought.

[Dan@AWD]

Yeah I don't want there to be an issue VTA. I see a lot of setups still leaving the PCV on VTA, but technically should be removed with no vacuum present. Vibrant doesn't make a BSPT thread so I'm sure Revworks supplied a NPT.

Vibrant part #'s if anyone is curious to replace the PCV Valve with a -AN fitting:

• Vibrant Part No: 10222 - Straight Adapter FItting; Size: -6 AN x 3/8" NPT
• Vibrant Part No: 10221 - Straight Adapter Fitting; Size: -8AN x 3/8" NPT
• Vibrant Part No: 10223 - Straight Adapter Fitting; Size: -10 AN x 3/8" NPT

Im going to try and nail down which they are. I know the oil port on the front is bspt.

For the oil sending unit? I'm pretty sure my kit came with a 1/8" NPT and no issues with it.

When I installed the FBM catch can I didn't want to pull the AC compressor because of the SC. But the line that runs out from it is easy to tap into. Just chase it out 6-8" and cut it there. just remove the remainder and cap it off.

The Mach V Galley Adapter converts it from BSPT to 1/8 NPT
