Default Canton Valve Cover Owners...

What did you do about the grommet that goes on the rear of the p.s valve cover. The hole in the canton is a larger diameter then the one on the factory cover. Just curious, not at that stage yet, but be nice to get some ideas.

I had the same problem with my fatrodder covers. I went to a parts store and found a grommet that works with both the tube and the hole on the cover. Pretty simple.

It's a rather simple solution. Mr Gasket makes valve cover breather gromets and pretty much every auto parts store stocks and sells them.

Same as above, go to the local parts store and in the HELP section there should be a variety pack of grommets or you can just eyeball it. There is one that fits perfectly with the Deustche filter I put on.
