what are you guys using
« on: November 02 2012, 10:31:36 AM »
..for oil filler caps.  I need a cap that's going to fit my valve cover becuase the OEM oil filler thingy was removed.  Do I need to buy a new set of valve covers? If so, do they come with the oil filler cap?  Just looking for what most guys are using to cover up the oil filler hole in the valve cover.  Thanks

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

is the whole "breather" cap necessary?  that looks nice and i believe that's what I'll go for. The one on there now continues to pop off.  I opened my hood the other day and it was just sittin there. Not cool.  Thanks guys

the one from kirbans look like it'll be a snug fit.  I went to autozone the other night thinking they would have one, and the cap they gave me was plastic with the rubber seal.  There was no way that it could have went on there because the rubber was WAY too thick. And, it didnt help that it was plastic.
