This is a question that is not part of my Original Tiger engine study.

I don=E2=80=99t know if the later style PCV is original to my engine.   =
I only know this it is as purchased, I=E2=80=99m the 4th owner.

=20

Did Ford stock pile these adaptors for the Tiger engine build, well =
maybe.

If so it is a very good question as to when the change was made to the =
later style PCV valve and hose.

=20

The Parts List is no help because it lists changes by Vin #, Ford made =
changes by engine #.

The PCV Adaptor is listed for all Tiger engines =E2=80=93 no help there =
for when this part was changed.

=20

The only way to understand when this change happened is by Ford engine # =
or with period photos of the 60=E2=80=99s that at least indicate a Vin # =
to give us a reference point.

=20

Original Tiger Engine Study is online on the TE/AE web site.

It has been online since April 2021, there are only 13 entries.  I had =
hoped for many more by now.

This is an easy questionnaire, no engine tear down required unless you =
want to.=20

Please participate.

Thanks

My crossover Mk1a  B382=E2=80=A6=E2=80=A691 came to me with the adaptor. =

I am the 2nd owner and have no info whether the prior owner made =
changes.

Any changes were made pre-1980 which is when the car entered long term =

The short answer is NO.  This picture is from Bob Mannel=E2=80=99s book =
pg. 4-41.

=20

The PCV valve threads into the Adaptor.

The pictures you sent =E2=80=93 that part could work but not original or =
correct for the Tiger engine.

I don=E2=80=99t believe the original Adaptor is available =E2=80=93 it =
is obsolete.

=20

Ford fazed the brass Adaptor part out as a cost reduction, replaced by =
the PCV hose with 2 right angles in 1965.

It is curious that even the MK II Part List shows this Adaptor.  MK II =
does not use the brass Adaptor part.

=20

I do not know when this change took place on the Tiger engine but my =
F21KA engine has the 2 right angle PCV hose.

I've attached two pictures and was wondering if this is the same adapter =
Rootes used on the Tiger.  The early parts book lists the Ford # as =
378754.  The Mustang supplier's sell the pictured one for big block =
cars. Anyone still have their original.
