Title: what is it?
Post by: lakenheath24 on April 25, 2008, 08:17:58 PM
i am reinstalling the motor tomorrow and i found an oval box directly underneath the intake(bolted to the block) with what looks like a water pump sized(3/4") outlet pointing toward the front of the motor. anyone know what it goes to? sorry no pics, i dont know how to reduce them.

Your link doesn't work (since it points to the edit page) so I put your id in and found this: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2960628  But there is only one picture up.

It's the block breather.  From there a hose goes to the PCV valve and then to the underside of the upper intake just after the throttle body on a stock system.
