PCV valves are Positive Crankcase Ventilation valves, they are part of the breather system. as they get old they can cause oil to burn & smoke from the exhaust. they are quite cheap so just replace them with the hoses. they are located either side of the plenum :)

Performance Increase From Stage 3

What motor would you get for 4k?
