Valve cover question
How small is the hole in the valve cover where the oil breather goes? I have gone through 2 different sizes and cannot find one that will fit. Where can I get one that will fit? Thanks guys, I kinda need it cause I messed up the stock rubber groumet that holds the stock one in.

The oil breather? Are you referring to the PCV valve on the driver's side valve cover or the crankcase breather on the passenger side valve cover? Either way, the hole in the valve cover is 1". The hole in the grommet itself for the PCV valve or breather is 3/4".

Thanks guys, I was talking about the crankcase breather. Now where in the hell can you find a 1" breather lol?

KN make a 3/4 inch breather that is 4 inches in diameter. Using the same grommet as the stock tube you can push the KN one in just fine.
