1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

[Oldschool]

For the new valve covers they machine the breather holes. I don't like the breathers they offer and doing research it has the nipple for a hose to a separate tank which I am not going to do. Searching I can't find a lot of options for push-in style breathers that look good. I am thinking something like this.

The breather Ray Barton puts on their covers (no-go for me)

Push-in option I am looking at?

Scott. I am using the push in breathers on mine and they work great. I am using the K&N washable ones. Pop them out and clean them every once in a while and keep going.

Thanks, Ken. I was looking at the pictures you sent me of your engine bay

Yes, I was looking at those as well. Just replied to an email from Ray Barton. I am having them machined for the push-in style...............

I hate not being able to use the valve covers I have. But with the new heads and rockers, they just won't work. These breathers will hopefully keep the old school look.

I used these, the way they are made doesn’t require a baffle.

Those are the same ones Barton carries. I wasn't sure about the nipples sticking off them. I thought they were for a line into an external tank?

Just a vent. They don’t need to be hooked to anything. Pretty much any other breather needs a baffle.

You know fitting a Hemi in an A-body you need at least one BFH

I'd be so hyped up I don't think I would be able to sleep at this point. You're one lucky man!
