Does anyone know if the PCV valve went on the driver's side oil fill or on the passenger's side? My care has factory AC so some of the brackets for the AC unit run really close to the grommet on the passenger's side valve cover. Any help wpuld be GREAT. Pictures would be better!!

It goes in the valley pan in front of the carburetor, there should be a grommet there. If not they are readily available at most parts places.

Someone probably installed the pan backwards. The front I think is correct for 350 & 400's don't know if 326 is diff.

Cant install the pan backwards.
Pre 68's had the pcv valve in the rear.
Used a breather cap on the valve cover instead of a tube to the breather inside the air cleaner on 68's and up.
