These are a little pricey but it helped on my "far from stock" 455 the PO had put the edelbrock top end and cam kit on. Helped with warming up, inconsistent idle, and overall performance. Also shut up a noise which sounded like a noisy lifter but was a PCV valve rattling at idle. The site is just worth reading for the info on how PCV valves work and what they are suppose to do. If you think you have any possible PCV problems they answer emails very quickly. http://mewagner.com

Thats really interesting.
PCV valves have always seemed to be a low tech solution.
Their two level valve looks like a great idea
