Title: PVC location 5.0 vs 5.8
Post by: jcassity on June 14, 2005, 01:16:28 AM
anyone know why these two engines could not have the same pvc design?  the 5.8 is a whole lot easier to get to minus the mystery pvc screen as well.

I can't remember how the PCV on the "normal" 351 fuelie is setup(and I gave one of those intakes to the junk man)... The GT40 351 intakes for the Lightning P/U is exactly the same as the 5.0...

its all fab'd up in a way that the pvc is sitting to the pass side of the upper intake.  it branches out of the lower intake on a T fitting, then the pvc is inline with the plumbing that goes to the pass valve cover.  the fitting that plugs into the pass valve cover is very very low profile but i think that fitting is also a pvc.  the pvc and the valve cover elbow part both rattled so i assume they both are pvc's.

Hey J

PVC = poly vinyl chloride Pipe
PCV = Posotive Crankcase Ventilation

i know why i did that,,,,,,,,
i made the boys some bow and arrows and i used 1/2'' pvc for the bow.  I think PVC has been in my vocabulary for the past two weeks making bows for all these little wild indians running around here.

Lol,  now if you start answering the Phone  "Pvc....Errr...hello?"  you know you have problems!  I did that at a computer store I worked at once.  If you know anything about networking you know how to make cables and the wire code for all eight wires.  I made 110 patch cables in one day, about mid way through I had to answer the phone because the other guys were busy.  Well I picked the phone up and said "white orange, orange, white gre.....err..  Aport computers"  It happend to be my boss and needless to say he laughed for ever about it!
