Re: PCV Anyone?

Eric54, I believe your old Studebaker friend raised a valid issue. Installing a PCV on an engine not designed for it is akin to running with a vacuum leak. That, if not compensated for, would result in a lean fuel/air mixture which in turn would lead to poor engine performance and perhaps eventually to burned valves. Larger carburetor main jets would be a way of compensating for the altered (leaner) mixture.
