Converting a dc valve cover to a turbo valve cover...help!

[86seeS]

Ive seen them on turbo cars before but how did they do it? Needing help bad pics would be great

[cordes]

Are you talking about a port for the PCV?

[86seeS]

Mainly the inner baffel because the na baffel wont fit atleast not in mine I got the port problem solved already

You don't need the inner baffle, the turbo V/C has one already, but you should redo it as its not ideally done from the factory.

The DC valve cover may not have a baffle inside?

Sorry, misread it, I thought he wanted to put a turbo v/c on, doh!

Pretty sure butchsuppe has one installed, probably ask him what he did.

Probably need to use the N/A baffle that was on the early 2.2s with the stamped steel cover that used the huge plastic breather/PCV box on the valve cover. Not sure if I have one running around or not, if I get a chance I'll look.

No no baffel inside I tried the early one and it wont work the dc valve cover is 3/4 of a inch shorter then a turbo one so the baffel in it wont work eather. plus its put on with screws on the back and im not drilling holes if I dont need to. For the pcv part I got that covered used a ford pcv grommet fits perfect and the pcv plugs right in

Are you going to run an open breather along with that PCV? If you just run the PCV then you will end up pressurizing the crankcase under boost. The PCV will close under boost and then there is no where for pressure to go.

Your gonna need some sort of baffling around that PCV otherwise it'll just ingest huge quantities of oil. Been there with a masi pre-production valve cover. IMO, cut up a turbo baffle and make it fit. Looks like a neat nostalgic TD project!

I beleave im goin to just make a baffel and have it tacked in inside. The turbo baffel is to thick for the dc the dc is shorter and more narrow towards the top. if I cut and mod it ill have about the same time and effort as a new one.

Its broke, I'll take it for scrap price

[86seeS]

There will be a filter like the stock set up

If it comes down to that your first in line jt

[moparman76_69]

Figure out a way to put some breather filter material on the inside of the PCV valve.

LOL... ya know what would be real trick? To put the 1pc gasket base from a newer VC on it... how good are your fab skills and you welder?

EDIT: And NO I'm not talking you into making it junk so I get it, LOL

[butchsuppe]

The mod to the TBI baffle in my motor was spread out and flatten to fit closer to the cam. I made 2 brackets that used the cam caps to hold the baffle down. The baffle in my cover is a U shaped cover over the PCV with the openning facing up.

Some of these seem like they could work for you.

So where is the other hole then?

Figure out a way to put some breather filter material on the inside of the PCV valve.

I was going to say to do that, or just run one of these:
