OK, since I am going to go breather and PCV....does anyone know if the PCV need to be on a specific side of the engine (385 series)?? According to my chebby source, bowtie motors flow in one direction.

A PCV will function just fine on EITHER side of the engine.

BTW,a minor point, a "motor" is electric. I believe the more appropriate term here is "engine".

D.Hearne: "Picky"?, I'm just trying to add some humor which is sadly lack here lately. My Doctor DOESN'T recommend Viagra especially after my stroke but that discussion belongs in the old "Gene Pool" not here. Too many people there (the Gene Pool) inhabited the shallow end!

Maybe "plucky" would have been a better choice of words.

Not to hijack this thread, but SD brought up an interesting topic. The difference between a motor and engine may seem a clear cut thing (a motor being electric), but it really isn't. The definition of a motor is "something, such as a machine or an engine, that produces or imparts motion." So technically, you could call an internal combustion engine a motor.
