iv got the lynx manifold without the valve on it. and im unsure what to do i know its necissary to release the pressure from the crankcase but. does the valve have to be located in the manifold? can i just take one off of another manifold and mount it on the end of the feed line ?

it's located in the manifold, so the manifold vacuum draws out the crankcase gasses..

ahhhhh so i spose ive gotta drill a nice hole in this manifold and tig it in FML

forgot to mention its going on an A14 too

Tig what in? Can you get away with tapping a thread in instead? Neater and less work (no insult to your tig skills )

Casey, I'm almost on the road with my 1000, how far away are you? It'd be good to get some more numbers on the cruises.

yea im having a bit of friday afternooon ITIS haha i just realised the one off the stock manifold is a threaded fitting.
iv been working too hard this week im loosing my marbles.
yea my ute isnt far off im just trying to find nitty gritty stuff that i dont wanna buy new like a headlight and some front apron indicators also need a door seal and to touch up my paint should have the power house done by the end of next week fingers crossed

no one would happen to know what thread tap it is haha

This manifold does not have a PCV provision because the engine that it was specifically designed for, the A10, did not use a PCV system.

Worse, it was designed for the earlier round port configuration & will not fit & work on an oval port A14 head. [Nor a round port A14 head either]

FML why wouldnt it work on an A14 round port head ? i really wish this #OOPS# was easier :(

Bolt pattern? You may have to drill n tap a new hole (between the existing two studs) for the manifold stud.

Get some pics up of the manifold?

I saw your old wagon yesterday cruising down grand junction road (I think it was yours anyway).
