Default In Sacto.

Gunner:
If you go to the BAR on Florin in Sacto, George is going to want to see incoming/outgoing in a closed loop; nothing escaping into the atmosphere. As soon as he sees you don't have it, he will show you a diagram and ask you to go home, follow it. If you show up with out the proper system in place, he'll turn you away and send you home on the spot, no pass go! It happened to Dan L. last week. He wants to see no breathers, tubes, vents or devices of any kind directly escaping into the atmosphere. Just trying to save you a 1/2 a day, trip over and back twice, if you can get it right the first trip there. I had a kit I gave to Dan, but he had to use part of it and still has part on his car. If you go to Florin, he will check, specifically. Just a heads up.

On the two times I passed the visual, I ran one from a breather on the valve cover to the air cleaner with a 90-degree fitting and the other from the back of the manifold to the back of the carb. The last time was for SB100 and I just had one line from the breather to the base of the air cleaner and it was approved.

Here is an original PCV diagram for 1965 390FE to reference/simulate from.
