Trying to find oil fill cap and breather elbow....
 

I just bought some polished valve covers with no caps and can't find any that will fit. The opening in each cover is 1 3/8". I would be willing to use a push-in or screw on oil cap if that can be made to work. I just want something with a tight seal so I don't sweat oil out of it. I would like them to be chrome or polished. Trying to keep it a sealed system so I can utilize the pcv setup so I would need an elbow or a non-vented cap with an outlet, size doesn't really matter. Any help is always appreciated 8-)

Pics of said covers?

You could try a 3800 specific forum, they prob know more.

That would have been funny if I had a 3.8 pal :|

Huh. On my Vortec VC's I've got standard parts house caps (Spectre?) and a K&N breather. They were a tight fit but worked fine. I did get a little weepage from one of the caps but a quick skim of RTV on the grommet fixed that up.

Edit: The only larger grommets I'm finding are either 1.25 OD or 1.5 OD. Damn.

Looks like they are 1.22" (1 3/16ths) so that should be easy 8-)

Damn tape measure fooled me the first time :lol: I appreciate the help though!

:dancinglock:

LOL. There's a ton of **** for the 1.22" or 1.25". Only thing I came up with with 1.375 OD were clamp on breathers for vent tubes. Good stuff though.

Well I'm looking at these two. It says they fit a 1.22" hole but that no grommet is included. Does that mean the outer diameter of the push in tube is 1.22" or that I will have to get a grommet? I guess I can just get them and find out hahaha

Honestly, unless you are ordering really nice ones just bolt down to your local parts house and buy them there. Then if they don't fit you can return them, plus you don't pay shipping.

But to answer your question directly, yeah, you will need grommets.

Yeah I think I'm going to try that first, thanks Bill.

I think mine are from WESCO products? But they look like the ones below.

They look pretty good, I think I was looking at them before.

I also found this cap http://www.crazydaveyracing.com/stor...products_id=43 and I might end up doing a grommet and sticking a plastic elbow in the passenger cover to route back to the throttle body for the pcv. First I will try some local parts and see what fits :D
