Which Breather for Canton Valve Covers
I recently installed the Canton valve covers on my LT1 but am unsure as to which valve cover breather to go with. Any advice would be appreciated.

To be frank, it doesnt really matter. I headed over to discount auto and got a big chrome one that was like 15 bucks, and the grommet set that was like 3. Looks good, works fine, and hasnt cracked or messed up in the heat in around a year of DD duty.

It does indeed matter. It isnt a push in style like stock LT1 valve covers with a grommet. The breather needs to be threaded in.

They sell the correct grommet in a 2 pack kit for like 3 bucks at most autopart stores. Fits right into the cantons hole, and allows any style breather filter to be used.

Yeah, you didnt mention specifically that you had cantons, so I thought you were talking about stock VC's when you mentioned grommet. I dont see why you would need a grommet. Cant someone just find a breather that threads in?

I personally have not seen a thread in VC breather like that, but I'm sure they are out there.
