[Tigers] Tiger PCV Adapter

                You are correct, I did not explain those items about my attempt to recreate this Adaptor part.

 

David Franchi sent this picture which shows the original Adaptor part with hose flange and an early style PCV valve with the flange for the rubber grommet.

Wish you had reminded everyone that the brass fitting in the photo has a hose barb where the threads are.  And my MkI  PCV hs small flanges where it goes through the grommet on the valve cover.

Sweet – this is great

 

Attached is Weatherhead Logo

 

I took a Weatherhead Male Elbow and made a nearly correct looking PCV adaptor and valve.

 

Thanks David

Found them, even the angle adapter. Don't know where my used ones are, but here are new ones.

 

MKI, AC CV643C & C4TZ-6A666-D....

MKII AC CV733C & C6AE-6A666-B2....

Angle adapt. Autolite/Ford 378754 S on bag, on fitting hexagon with a W in it.

Pictures attached.

Ron, I have them, will dig them out, they have AC Delco and Ford numbers on them.

                As I side note: The MKI & MKII Tigers used AC Delco PCV valves, not Ford/Motorcraft.

That seems very strange.   The Parts Lists only indicates a Ford Part number.

It would be interesting if anyone can confirm an AC Delco part with a photo.

 

I agree the brass adaptor was probably made by Weatherhead.

There is a repeated symbol on this part – photo by Ken Firch – it should be the suppliers Logo.

 

I have a 1990 Weathehead catalog and they do show that symbol – W with an arrow through it.

I was buying and selling Tiger parts in 1978 and this brass angle fitting was obsolete from Ford then. 

I believe the brass angle fitting was made by Weatherhead.

 

I am 90% sure that all the 260 MKI Tigers had the angle fitting PCV adapter, and it was changed with the 289 MKII Tiger.

 

As I side note: The MKI & MKII Tigers used AC Delco PCV valves, not Ford/Motorcraft.
