Valve Cover grommet baffles
 
Has anyone ever used those rubber grommet pcv baffles for baffle-less valve covers like pentroofs?

Any luck? Are they junk? Me thinks they're too deep.

I haven't used them but they look to be deeper than the baffels on my valve covers. Maybe you could call them and find out just how deep they are.

The link doesn't work, but if they're the ones I'm thinking about, I had them. Ended up cutting the bottom out because it took forever to put oil in the car. I had tall valve covers to clear the roller rockers, and the covers didn't have a baffle.

Jack,

The link works for me. Did you click the link on that first page that says Skip These Deals and continue to SummitRacing.com?

Ron,

No I didn't, but I just did now, and yes those are the ones I had.

I have used them. If no baffles in valve covers, Then these dramatically cut down the amount of oil that pulls through the P VC system To add oil I just pulled this grommet out of the valve cover. Not as good as a true metal baffle but sometimes this is the only option

Well, I got the pentroofs installed and they look great. I had to trim a tiny bit of the tabs on the gaskets and enlarge 2 holes on each VC. Most important thing though is that those type of baffles aren't too long. First, the VC holes are between rocker pairs and second, even the longer one doesn't touch the rocker shaft!
Let the leaking begin **)
