Re assembling a 74 LE Bee from a pile of parts and found the that intake plenum that I got with its original motor is the later style that doesn't use the "F" vacuum connector/has no port of the crank case vent.
My instinct is telling me that this is the wrong part, but i wanted to confirm with another LE owner as to the intake plenum/ crank case vent system used on their LEs. Having noticed other differences between the LE and my earlier 74 car I just want to be absolutely sure before I go and prep another plenum to install. |

Its the standard 2.0L plenum...it requires the F connector. Post photos of what you have?

That was what I suspected but wanted to confirm with someone that actually has an LE. What is on there now is the later style 2.0 plenum that replaces the port for the F connector with the much smaller single nipple that provides manifold vacuum to the decel valve and eliminates the manifold vacuum port to the oil tower used by the PCV equipped cars.  |
