1959-1960 El Camino was the start of the classic EL Camino family that instantly became a classic. The El Camino Store offers this quality replacement, Road Draft Tube Mounting Kit, Small Block, for your restroration project or part replacement. The first refinement in crankcase ventilation was the road draft tube, which is a pipe running from a high location contiguous to the crankcase (such as the side of the engine block, or the valve cover on an overhead valve engine) down to an open end facing down and located in the vehicle's slipstream. When the vehicle is moving, airflow across the open end of the tube creates a draft that pulls gases out of the crankcase. The high location of the engine end of the pipe minimises liquid oil loss. An air inlet path to the crankcase, called the breather and often incorporated into the oil filler cap, meant that when a draft was generated at the tube, fresh air swept through the crankcase to clear out the blow-by gases. Do not settle for just any replacement parts for your prized 1959, 1960 El Camino, use only the best parts. Trust The El Camino Store for all your part needs.
