Default Motorcraft PCV Valve Fitment

I'm looking for a Motorcraft PCV valve that will work with these valve covers. Also are these grommets the correct ones for the valve covers?

I'm having good luck with the generic small block chevy *gasp* PCV valve (call it a '75 chevy pickup w/350). It comes with a 90* elbow, making hose routing much cleaner and easier.

Those grommets appear to be correct, but you should be able to pick them up at just about any chain parts store in your area.

Keep in mind, any hoses that you use on the PCV system need to be oil/fuel rated. You can't use regular heater hose.

Good point about the hoses. I already knew that, but its always good to remind people.

I was thinking that the same PCV valve thats on my F150 would work, but just wanted to see what others were using. I also don't want one of the cheapo ones that most parts stores carry.

I made a point to stock the quality BWD (Standard Motor Products) PCV valves in my store. Most stores only stock Fram or equivalent cheapo valves.

The BWD or Borg Warner stuff is about as good as aftermarket replacement parts get.

Thats cool. I'm looking for one that has 1 port not 2 though. Why do you need one that has 2 ports on your car?
