A very good deal for the money.

Very good product. It appears to be made of good metal and fits very well so installation was easy. The shiny chrome looks really good under the hood.

Pros
  • spare parts
Cons
  • frequency

Great fit, great price. Seals sold separately

Excellent kit. The only extra part I had to install was a gasket kit (available at any local auto shop). Easy to install and all hardware included.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Exterior

All parts arrived dented

The first parts arrived with very large dents on the cap and cap. The packaging is excellent but still crumpled. The replacement kit also had dented, bent components that were leaking exhaust manifolds.

Pros
  • For Chevrolet Small Block 265 and 400
Cons
  • Expensive

Fit and finish not perfect

For the price I can't complain but the fit and finish is not perfect. The rubber bushings didn't grip the breather and PCV very tightly, making the engine rough. I ended up putting my old ones back in. Now they are mounted on the wall.

Pros
  • Made of high quality material
Cons
  • Minor imperfections

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The PVC valve sleeve is loose and there is no lid gasket.

In general, the kit is worth the money. The only complaints are the lack of spacers and the rubber grommet on the PCV is too big for the PCV to fall out. I just wrapped it with wire around the T-handles to secure it. Not perfect, but will work for now.

Pros
  • Designed to be used to OE specifications for fit and function.
Cons
  • Obsolete model.
