Chevrolet 283 Draft Tube - PCV Valve


The Chevy 283 has a "draft tube" which vents the motor.  It just runs from the back of the block, to the outside atmosphere (to the ground).  No valving.  I took a standard freeze plug and modified the inside diameter to accept a valve cover grommet.  Press in the freeze plug, install grommet . . . and you can use a PCV valve (one way) to run a hose under your carb and keep that negative block pressure we all love so dear . . .
