1. carb conversion dilemma (score: 1): Author: David Councill <dcouncil@imt.net>; Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 16:42:43 -0600; I'm in the final phases of a carb conversion. Not a standard one and that is where the problem lies. The car is a 65 MGB with an 18V engine (from a 72 but the number indicates a later block). We are; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00961.html (7,919 bytes)
2. Re: carb conversion dilemma (score: 1): Author: Bud Krueger <bkrueger@ici.net>; Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 19:24:41 -0400; The ports aren't in the castings of the HS4, they're in the air cleaners. At least that's been my experience. You can use either the PCV valve into the intake manifold, or the tubes into the air cle; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00964.html (8,104 bytes)

The way I see it... ...you need some kind of crankcase venting, so rule out blocking off the breather tube. ...you probably don't want it connected to a constantly varying vacuum, eith; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00965.html (8,991 bytes)
4. Re: carb conversion dilemma (score: 1): Author: David Councill <dcouncil@imt.net>; Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 18:37:16 -0600; I thought of that possibility. However, I would need the pcv valve and either the adapter to connect it to the intake manifold or an earlier intake manifold. Except I still have the distributer to in; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00969.html (8,347 bytes)
5. Re: carb conversion dilemma (score: 1): Author: Bob Shaw <shaws@mlcltd.com>; Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 20:57:03 -0500; I ran a loop of tubing over the top from one carb to the other. Clamp them on because if one comes off it doesn't run well at all. -- Bob Shaw Check out Shaw's Garage at http://www.mlcltd.com/shawsga; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00976.html (8,554 bytes)
6. Re: carb conversion dilemma (score: 1): Author: Max Heim <mvheim@studiolimage.com>; Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 19:20:55 -0700; I suspected there might be some kind of issue with the manifold. But AFAIK (i.e. what my 66 has), the PCV-to-manifold connection is just a very very short piece of rubber hose with 2 hose clamps, to; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00981.html (9,565 bytes)

I have AUD-326s on my '69 and I have a set of 425s from a '70 (working from memory); all have the ports for the breather tubes.

8. Re: carb conversion dilemma (score: 1): Author: David Councill <dcouncil@imt.net>; Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 21:49:03 -0600; These are AUD-135s - from 1965. My 67 BGT has the AUD-278s, also without the ports. Most likely, the breather tube ports were introduced when the PCV valve was eliminated, if I was to guess., maybe 6; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00989.html (7,700 bytes)

Both of mine do. I guess one of them could be removed and a PCV could be inserted in the hole. Cheers, CR /// /// mgs@autox.team.net ma; /html/mgs/2001-07/msg00997.html (7,353 bytes)
