Hey you guys Normally the brass plug on the outside up front of the manifold has only one outlet like the one i have . I have seen some manifolds with 2 or 3 outlet tubes on the sides of the plug. Most likely one is for the vacuum assisted windows wiper , one is for the pcv valve connection or for the oil bath filter Connection recycling the oil damp. I need a brass plug for the manifold with 2 outlets on my 235 engine , anyone knows where i could get one of these or how to modify the one i have ? Thanks Martinius.
Prowl the junkyards for older cars with v8s. I have seen many different configurations, some of the 70s cars with lots of emissions may have many outlets.
Russ is right on, many cars and trucks in the 70's and 80's had fittings with 2,3,4, or even 5 tubes out the sides and top. They took hoses anywhere from 3/16 to 3/8. Most of them had 3/8" pipe thread. If you don't find one let me know as I'm sure I have several.
Brass manifold plug Thanks Russ and Evan fore the reply. I will search for one this week at the local salvage yard and see if they have one that fits the aplication! It might be that i ask you later if i cant find anything! Thanks for the offer Evan . I am looking for one that have 2 outlet tubes! I have now installed an Ampco lubricator on one manifold inlet as it uses the vacuum frome the intake to function. I whas thinking using the other inlet for a hoose going from the engine valve cover filling cap with integrated PCV valve to the other intake . I`ll get back to you , thanks guys Martinius
You can also get "Y" or "T" splitters at the local parts house, usually they are white plastic. Look in the help section.
