[DeTomaso] Fw: Looking For a Hall Pantera Oil Fill Cap

[John Taphorn]

Will

 I am using Peterson risers and breather.  A pic available at their website 
is http://www.petersonfluidsys.com/Photos/brthr.jpg  The riser is actually 
another inch or two into the aircleaner in that picture. They are pricey and 
you will need to weld on the base threaded nut to the valve cover; but, they 
are terrific quality.  I am using them on two Panteras.  I have included a 
pic of my car for you that will be scrubbed from the list.

A benefit of these risers is that they are baffled and allow you to raise 
the PCV valve several inches above the valve cover to reduce oil suction 
into the intake manifold.  I actually mounted (seen in the picture) a small 
transparent drier between the PCV and the carb that permits me to see the 
oil still bypassing the PCV valve.  It is minimal. The drier installation is 
temporary.

Peterson does not sell a PCV grommet for their risers.  Thus, I used JB Weld 
to glue a washer like piece of metal to the top of the riser that would hold 
a grommet to mount the PCV.  It works like a charm.  On the other valve 
cover, I run the riser with an air filter.

No oil leaks with this unit!
