OK. I don't have the correct air breather for my year (wish I did). I do have this air breather from a 1966 F100.
I know it is not mounted correctly, so looking for some suggestions here on improving it. I have the "heat" hose coming up from the manifold to pass inspection (don't know what I will do when I install my EFI manifolds).
And I know my oil breather is vented to nowhere, but that will be corrected - seems the opening on the vent doesn't match up with the intake on the breather (it is much smaller).
I have the bracket that came off of the donor truck (the 66), but for the life of me I cannot remember how it went together. Seems the bracket came off of the passenger side.
I don't have a lot of pictures of how it used to be, but this is how it was positioned on mine. A bracket (I think it mounted on or near the power steering pump bracket) held it in place,
Redrum, I mean redload, that picture helps a lot and shows me the bracket I have is not what I have. On the engine, that bracket looks to be bolting into the same place that my coil bracket does.
Wonder what the chance of finding that bracket is? Additionally, I would need to reroute my fuel line some to accommodate that setup.
Ah yes, the coil stud. That's where mine was too.
I imagine you could find one in any junk yard. Mine's an '81, so it looks like they used that same setup for quite a while. I know around '83 or '84, they changed the air filter setup to a much larger diameter filter. But, you have quite a few years to pick from.
perhaps NumberDummy would know that part number. If they were used up to the early 80s there's a chance one could be found.
My junk yard/salvage yard options are very, very limited in my town. Have to drive 70 miles to San Antonio to find a pick and pull.
