Valve Cover Engine Vent Set, Pair, Barbed End

Product Overview

High-performance air-cooled Volkswagen engines are notorious for generating significant internal crankcase pressure, especially as RPMs climb and internal heat increases. Without a proper ventilation system, this pressure searches for the path of least resistance, which usually means pushing oil past your main seals, pulley seals, or even out of the oil filler cap. The EMPI Valve Cover Engine Vent Set is specifically engineered to mitigate this issue by providing a dedicated exit point for trapped gases directly from the source. By relieving this pressure at the valve covers, you effectively stabilize the internal environment of your engine''s crankcase, reducing the risk of messy oil leaks and ensuring that your gaskets stay seated even under high-load racing conditions or long-distance highway hauls.

Crafted with precision and designed for long-term durability, these vent fittings feature a robust barbed end that ensures a secure, leak-free connection to your breather hoses. Unlike traditional vent solutions that can be prone to seeping or loose fitment, this set utilizes a high-quality O-ring design to create a superior seal against the valve cover surface. Whether you are building a weekend cruiser, a dedicated drag racer, or a rugged off-road dune buggy, these vents are a critical component of any comprehensive crankcase ventilation system. Sold as a pair, they offer a symmetrical solution for both cylinder heads, allowing for balanced breathing that keeps your engine bay cleaner and your internal components running more efficiently. Don''t let excessive blow-by ruin your build; upgrade to a professional venting solution that stands up to the rigors of the road.

Vehicle Fitment

This vent set is designed for universal application across the air-cooled VW line, provided you are using aftermarket valve covers or have modified your stock covers to accept threaded or bolt-through fittings.
