pcv hose

I just replaced the stock carb and manifold on my 289 with an edlebrock carb and manifold. Now I don't know where to connect the pcv tube that originally came frome the passanger side valve cover to the base of the carb. There is a port at the base of the new carb but the instructions said that it is for power brakes so I just put a plug in that port. Your help is appreciated

RE: pcv hose

The PCV valve hose goes to the spacer at the bottom of the carb. If you don't have a spacer, get one. The port at the base of your new carb is most likely a vacuum port.

RE: pcv hose

There should be a port on the bottom flange in the back. I just put a new Edelbrock 500 on mine and that were mine was I think.
