<VV> Center section, early Air Cleaner

[Bill Hubbell]

The PCV valve holder is a separate part that is simply screwed onto the
center section.  The part number for the center section is the same whether
it has a PCV vale holder attached or not.

 

However, Ned IS correct that there were, in fact, SIX, not five different
center sections.  According to my 1964 parts book, they are:

 

1)       3794221 - 61-63 Car

2)       3795313 - 60-63 Car w/CAC, 61-61 Station Wagon,  61-62 FC

3)       3794222 - 64 Car w/CAC, 63-64 FC

4)       3830633 - 63-64 FC w/oil bath

5)       3840770 - 63-64 Car w/oil bath

6)       3851803 - 63-64 Car w/CAC and oil bath 

 

 

As I think about it, there is a difference in the way the baffle is designed
for #2 and #3 on the list above.

 

I assume (but not sure) that # 3 was also used on 1965 cars w/CAC and 1965
FCs.

 

Note that the parts book suggests (#5) that early 1964 cars (without CAC)
used the 1963 style oil bath pre cleaner - I am not sure if this is true

 

I believe I have examples of #s 1, 3, 4, and 5 above.  If anybody has
examples of #2 and #6 please take pictures and send to me and then I will
post all six for all to see.
