318 LM. Can someone describe (again) the the process of drilling out the PCV vacuum port on the Edelbrock 1409? Also is the hose fitting then pressed in or is the port then tapped and a screw-in fitting installed?
Second question. The old Carter AFB (four bbl) used a gasket with four holes, one for each throttle plate. Is this necessary, or can I just use the square perimeter gasket that came with the carb? The manifold opening is just one big open square. I can't really see why the "4 port" gasket was used on my old Carter.
