    Mine isn't routed to the air cleaner.  I used the original setup of the valve cover breather that just takes the surrounding air.  The PVC hose from the other valve cover routed to the carburetor base.

    I haven't installed mine yet.  But I have the PCV on drivers side going into the carburetor.  On the Cobra air cleaner I drilled a hole into is and added a rubber gromet for a elbow 90 degree.  Then I ran that to another elbow on the valve cover with a rubber gromet.  Check out this link.  We had talked about it some on it.  FYI FORD MustangSteve's Ford Mustang Forum » This is a 5.0 roller I am building (boardhost.com)

    Take a look at this.

    On my wife’s 79 F150 300ci 6 cyl, it uses a 90 fitting like MS uses on driver side.
    Just get a second elbow and grommet and add to air cleaner base, if you have a sheetmetal base.
    Otherwise, drill and tap aluminum base and add a fitting for hose.

    Drill and tap bottom of aluminum air cleaner for 1/2” nptf

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    If you want to run it to the air cleaner...

    https://www.amazon.com/Edelbrock-1205-PCV-Adapter/dp/B000I4VA52/ref=asc_df_B000I4VA52/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312128189269&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2078986597677578855&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=t&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9022835&hvtargid=pla-569892521640&psc=1

    There is a plastic Mr. Gasket one, that should be available at about any parts store that is a lot cheaper.

    Or a person could cobble one up with a number of different things from a good hardware store.

    If multiple things can go wrong, the one that will go wrong will be the one that causes the most damage.
