Manifold question - tri power
By George - 07/17/2002 12:47:19 AM; IP 64.12.96.105
Me again. My friend that's looking for Fairlane GTA kickdown linkage is also converting to tri-power. The alum manifold he has, has a big hole behind the carb table. The manifold does not have a crankcase vent tube in the front, like the earlier ones, so logic would tell us that the 2" hole in question should provide some crankcase venting. But, he has power brakes and shouldn't the vacuum for the booster come from the intake manifold? Isn't there some sort of fitting that would make that possible? Do we rely on the valve cover vent to vent the engine? There's another, smaller hole on the rear of the risers for the carburetor platform. What the H is that all about? I don't know the brand name of the manifold, but I do think it's FoMoCo.
Sorry I so dumb.
Thanks
George
