Did find correct PCV-valve (with brass fitting) to the 1963 engine but not to the 1964... Cheers! 7228170-20111218154.jpg (61 downloads) 1964 Dodge 330 Max Wedge clone 1965 Dodge Hemi A990 clone

It seems like the MW ones have tubes instead of mine's who have holes with grommets. Anyway, I need new grommets but maybe they are easier to find then... 1964 Dodge 330 Max Wedge clone 1965 Dodge Hemi A990 clone

Otherwise you can get the groments from Chrysler still so any of the sellers on the board can get them for you , check with Bill Alphin , gtx6970 ...

The breather and pcv-valve have small tubes in the end which is pushed in the rubber grommets hole (in valve covers). Sorry for strange description but aint no pro on english. Hope you understand. 1964 Dodge 330 Max Wedge clone 1965 Dodge Hemi A990 clone
