Breather cap ive looked at autozone and all over and found one on some of the websites but where can i get a breather filter that screws right into the oil filler cap??? i have one on now but its the full metal one with holes at the bottom that you can get at autozone. I want the kind that is a wrap around filter and screws right in no problem.

I can't believe you guys don't know about these..
LS1speed has JUST what you want.. I just got mine. They have the helix to mount to your valve cover..
Down towards the bottom..

Valve Cover Breathers I hope you fellas know that if you have a near stock LS-1 & install one of these breathers you will screw up Chevy's closed system & cause a loss of acceleration~gas mileage~vacuum ie , performance.

Well he just isnt making sense, alot of the older muscle cars use breathers and there are quiet a few guys on here who delete there PCV systems and run breathers with no problems at all, i dont see where he is getting his info.
