It is, there is a pvc valve in it. This thing was molested pretty bad before I got it. Looks like maybe the two sides got switched around.

You can see in the picture things have been switched around. Originally the PCV valve would have been in the passenger side valve cover and the breather tube that goes to the air filter would be in the driver's side. It doesn't matter really which is on which side just so long as the one with the PCV valve goes to vacuum tap at the base of the carb.

Progress today.
I got the rivets grounded down almost flush with the hanger. I've been working on grinding the edges off the top left one so I can drive it through. I got a center punch from home depot for 10 bucks, I gave it a good wack with a regular hammer and that sucker laughed at me. I guess I got to grind the edges a little further. Sorry for the sucky pic. it's dark outside.

I think you are in the wrong thread. But nice progress.

That's cool don't bother me none.
Got her fired up tonite, just need to get a throttle return spring and a way to mount it and a rod for the air cleaner. Runs pretty darn good, especially considering it's been sitting for a year.

Heh, heh. Too late to delete Brandon, Husker77 already quoted you. Your "oops" will always be a part of this thread.
