Has anyone used the valve cover breather grommets with an integral baffle? Moroso makes them, and I wondered if they work. My sheet metal covers dont have baffles, and this would be an easy fix.

The integral rubber baffles with the foam didn't work for me.

The pre-fab moroso bolt-in-through-the-top of the valve covers DID work. :D

Dont think these have foam, but I could be wrong.Talked to a local engine builder who has a couple sets. He said they're made by Moroso, like a rubber tube with a slit in the bottom. Told me to come down and get a set and try them. I think I will! Hey James, Thanks for reminding me! I got a set of the bolt in Moroso ones on an old set of valve covers!
Thanks Quick. Now ya got me thinkin. Ive never actually seen them. Just wondered if anyone tried them. Thanks for the link.

Pretty sure those will have a piece of green foam folter material in them...

OK. I didnt know that. I'll see them possibly tomorrow. If they dont work, I'll just use the bolt in ones James mentioned. Thanks guys

I usually use the ones with the foam but I put a black wrist sweat band around the base after I put the breather back in the grommet. Looks good and you can buy a pack with multiple bands in it for a couple bucks. It works great. I can run the same one on there for a little over a year before it starts to get dirty.
