Hello Everybody. Hey, I was wondering what you thought of running an Oil Separator on the PVC system of a 1970 351C 4v? They are getting popular on the New Mustangs. I have already installed one one my 2005 GT & was thinking about installing one on my 1970 Mach1. I can't find a listing for this application anywhere? So, would this be a good idea and do some good?
Please let me know what you Think.

Its a good idea.

Keeps the PCV system doing its job which IS GOOD for the engine, and will keep keep the oil from getting back into the intake side.

A friend of mine did this on his duster.

I dont think youll find a listing for a kit, youll have to make your own. shouldnt be hard though.. the separator and a few lines..

Just remember to drain/clean it every now and then.

an oil separator is not hard to make. it is basically a small container with a baffle that you run your PCV lines to.

Ive been thinking about using one as well. I dont see how it would hurt, except its appearance. How do you think I could hide it on my 66?
