Maybe someone has a ryme or reason for it. I do not. 1959 Bugeye Sprite 1967 Charger Black L code 1967 Coronet R/T Convert Green 440 auto bought from original owner 1968 Charger R/T Bronze 440 4 spd console AM/FM 1969 Super Bee WM21H B5 A40 D21 N96 1969 Barracuda Formula S 340 Convert pilot car 1969 Hemi Road Runner RM23J D32 Omaha orange 4.10 Dana N96 N85 1970 Super Bee WM23N FE5 V1X 3.91 axle package, N96 1970 Road Runner RM21N B3 V1X D13 1971 MG Midget 1971 Road Runner RM23H GW3, A57 1972 Road Runner RM23P FY1, D21

Air grabber cars the crankcase breather is pass side with the PCV on the drivers side Non air grabber cars its reversed Because - But isn't the hose to connect to the crankcase breather on the pass side rear of the air cleaner on all air greabber air cleaner bases????? Then on the drivers side on all chrome dome air cleaners.aka non air grabber

It makes sense to have the oil filler near the front on the driver's side just for hood clearance if nothing else. I just looked up a photo of my old 69 Hemi RR and the PCV is in the driver's side. They must be using some old photos in the 69 service manual? Last edited by RoadRunnerJD; 12/07/12 10:08 PM.

If your current 69 is a wedge motor, the valve cover with the filler tube is on the wrong side. Just saying...

It's also like that on Harold Sullivan's green RM27J. I vote for the pcv on the driver's side. I agree with Bill (gtx6970), the chrome domes were opposite of the AG cars. Why not double check with Frank Badalson...he has a tremendous library of survivor photos.

The picture of the green 69 Hemi Road Runner is a "survivor" example. 7494237-IMG_0853.jpg (69 downloads) 1969 340 4 Speed Swinger R4, black vinyl, white butt stripe, 3:91
