Re: differential cover vent used
The vent hat is threaded into the lid with 1/4" or 3/8" pipe threads. Raise the hat up with a 6" piece of pipe...can't remember which size. We started doing this in the sixties on our dune buggies...no overflow. On the racecar I used -4 braided stainless hose to a remote mini K&N.

Re: It Was Suppose to be a Parts Van
This van came from the Galli Family Horde...Paolo is downsizing.
I do have two from Santa Barbara...63 Corvan & 65 Turbo Corsa.

Re: It Was Suppose to be a Parts Van
Correct F/C dipstick is a mandatory requirement for me.
