What is the purpose of the foam element in this breather?

The reticulated foam element allows crankcase gases to escape the engine while trapping oil particles. This helps keep your engine bay cleaner and prevents oil blow-by.

Why is the 'push-in' style important for some valve covers?

The 'push-in' mounting style is ideal for low-profile and center bolt Elite Series valve covers. It doesn't require the internal clearance that bolt-on style breathers need, making installation easier in tight spaces.

Can I use this breather for oil changes?

Yes, the lid on this breather is designed to be removable. This makes it convenient to add oil to your engine during maintenance.

Product Details

What you get with this Edelbrock Elite Series Short "Push-In" Breather is a die-cast aluminum breather designed to fit all existing Elite Series valve covers. It features a removable lid for easy oil fills and a lower housing with a reticulated foam element. This foam element lets gases escape while keeping oil from getting into the crankcase ventilation system.

This breather is a good choice for low-profile and center bolt Elite Series valve covers because its "push-in" mounting style doesn't require the internal clearance that bolt-on breathers do. The die-cast aluminum construction means it's well-built and should hold up well.
