Default Oil cap breather

There's a thread in the Gen 3 section about an oil cap breather with a check valve in it. I can't seem to find one that fits an LT1. Anyone seen anything like that?

That was my thread!! Lol
Found this. Same company as mine. It does say lt1 is an used application. Not sure if its the older lt1's or the new vette motors

The old LT1s have a threaded oil cap. It's not interchangeable with the LS1 cap. I see the model for holley valve covers is threaded. I wonder if it would fit.

Call them and find out! Either way, didnt gm make a oem piece that has a check valve? If so, buy a generic small breather and adapt it to fit
