The 71 cars center carb had bowl vent and the vent tube running to the valve cover breather. The 70�s I thought just had the vented bowl and no tube like the 69�s but I have seen it both ways? Was there a date change over or is on just wrong? My 70 auto carb does not have the tube, and a single port breather on the valve cover.

All 71� and up production used this design, hose would connect to the breather cap. The 49-state 70� cars still used the open bowl vent valve. 1972 Road Runner GTX 440 6bbl 5-speed [img]http://72rrgtx.com/carpics/bucket/DSC06730r-1.jpg[/img]

The first one,, a non-Cali car just had the flapper like in '69. The current one I have is a California car and hence, has the bowl vent with the hose going to the crankcase vent on the valve cover. The crankcaase vent also has the third nipple with a hose going to the vent tube attached to the inner passenger side fender and running back to the gas tank.
