I have a 56 Thunderbird with a 292 I have been putting together.
Just realized this weekend the original road draft assembly is long gone and I don't have a valley cover with pcv hole. I also have the original aluminum polished lifter / valve covers.

I also don't have the original carburetor or distributor. I am just trying to make it work with what I have. Is there anything I can do that won't cost several hundreds of dollars to add pcv? It's all I have left to do before I can drop it in and see if it will run.

Anyone drill a hole in their valley and add a pcv valve? What did you use for a baffle?
Can I plumb the pcv valve into the back of my Carter wcfb carburetor?

Thanks for any suggestions.
