I bought some Offy valve covers recently for my 1962 215. I bought a couple
of chrome breathers from Checker Auto that fit. On one of the covers I had
to do just a slight touch of file work to remove a bit of the casting that
wasn't quite right. But it didn't need much removed. Hope that helps.

Subject: What breather?
Okay, here's a stupid question ...
I have a 63 Buick motor, and I have bought the Offenhauser
finned valve covers for it.
I cannot, in all the places I've checked, find a breather cap
to fit these. Most I have tried will not go down far enough
to reach the breather hole, as they hit the fins first.
What breather fits the Offy valve covers, and who stocks it?
Thanks,
