_-| 2.4L Valvecover Mods |-_

In an attempt to better control oil in the head, I am installing a 2.4L valvecover. It has extensive baffles on the underside which I believe will help in reducing the amount of oil out of the breather connection. Diameter is also much larger, so lower air velocity and so less likely to suck oil out.

Stock connections are press fit into the valvecover. With a little heat and muscle the fitting comes right out. The fitting on the front of the valvecover is approx. 3/8" diameter. Perfect size for a 1/4" NPT (1/4"-18 Tapper Tap) connection. The one of the end is about 1/2", or just right for a 3/8"NPT (3/8"-18Tapper Tap).

I'm using push-on hose connections and proper hose for those fittings.

Hose I am using is a 3/8" ID (inside diameter) for both connections. I can always jump to 1/2" hose if i want for the breather.

Valvecover needed a little cleaning on both sides, so i went to town on it. I took the liberty of removing the 2.4L letters off the cover, since I am using it on my 2.0L. Another benefit is the location of the oil filler location. It has a nice integrated spill channel.

After painting I decided to get creative n do some speckle paint on it. Looks better in person than what the camera shows.
