i only showed one pic, i have on both sides, my other one is in that spot too, thanks for the reminder, i forgot to post the other pic



i did put mine lower than yours though, im not sure if it makes a difference. i put it before the T

i suppose it is bad to have 'too' much negative pressure. but it doesnt cause that much negative pressure, it just holds it better. negative pressure helps promote ring sealing, and im hoping it helps the oil prob. (im going to put in a seperator to see)

If i was to install TWO of these KV pcv valves, could i use ANY of the afforementioned Ford pcv's ie. Cobra, or stock Lightning?? Also what about Breather caps?? or go back to stock oil cap??

i was just going to use a seperator to see if the vents work. breathers dont work and thats been proven. when you install the KV's you are supposed to drill out the pcv, but i didnt because it doesnt work any ways, but i probably will eventually. i dont like to mess with the pcv system (ie blocking it off, breathers, etc.) because its there for a reason. with a breather you have to run a tad richer to keep from throwing a lean code from unmetered air entering the motor, which means you have to have you chip calibrated for it. keep asking q's and ill do my best to answer

Glad to see my little idea to stop the PCV problem is working.

You owe me Gaven

Since this is my first post here I would just like to say that I will be here from time to time to poke my head in and give a few pointers to whoever needs them.

Who knows what kind of crazy ideas I will come up with.

Such as the use of a krankvent inline with the brake master cylinder to stop the problem of no power brakes after going into boost.


I don't own a lightning but know more than enough to get myself into trouble with them.
