Re: Breather Mold Project
Concerning the two different style parts I was going to make the larger style (Pic, Breather2). Now I have a question, with the lower tube style PCV valve holder? Why is one PCV tube lower then the other(Pic, Breather2(3))? Were they originally the same height but one was trimmed?

Re: Breather Mold Project
They have two different PCV valves. If you notice, the height with valve installed is the same across the two.

Re: Breather Mold Project
I figured, So I will base both my dimensions off the taller one then. Now if anyone has any design changes or suggestions now is the time to speak up cause once I start making molds it gets trickier to go backwards.

Re: Breather Mold Project
So you are suppose to have two different PCV valves? If so I will copy the one I have.

To be clear, what you show in your photos is what GM put on the car.

My suggestion is make this piece like an F also this way you can put hose clamps on the top of the PCV just like the bottom. I cut and made mine like an F and have clamps on top & bottom of each PCV. Pete
