2008 & Newer 5.7, 6.1, and 6.4L Hemi with Screw-in Oil Cap
Challenger R/T & SRT8
(Valve Cover Breathers and Valve Cover Adapters cannot ship to the state of California)
This crank case breather assembly replaces the cap on the oil fill tube located on the driver's side of the intake of the late model Hemi engine. The base of the breather is CNC-machined from billet aluminum for precise fit, and the included silicone O-ring is specially designed to prevent oil seepage at the base of the breather. The filter base is microfinished for surface protection and good looks, and is easily hand-polished to a mirror-like appearance. The removable filter element is a high-quality reusable unit from S & B Filters, and is securely retained in the filter base by a specially-machined retention groove at the top of the filter base.
The purpose of this crank case breather is to vent unwanted accumulation of pressure in the crankcase, which serves to eliminate pumping losses and reduce oil temperatures. The installation of this breather will contribute to increased engine oil life and reduce the possibility of failed engine seals resulting from excessive crankcase pressure.
The included check valve will allow the breather to vent any crankcase pressure that accumulates, but it will not allow ambient air to be drawn back into the engine through the breather under high-vacuum conditions. This valve is beneficial for applications that retain a valve cover vent line, or applications with a very sensitive (or aggressively-lean) PCM calibration.
No valve cover breathers can ship to the state of California. 6.1L Charger applications may have hood clearance issues - please check before ordering. Breather stands 3.0" above the oil fill.
Note 1: This crank case breather will fit earlier Mopar applications using the same screw-in style oil fill cap. This unit will not fit 2015 Hellcat and similar models with the twist-in helix-style thread on the oil cap. For twist-in applications, please see the MBR0019 listed elsewhere in this section. Some 6.4L truck applications use the MBR0019 twist-in style breather - please check your oil fill cap before ordering.
Note 2: This breather stand is also available with a male #10AN connection at the top instead of the provision for the breather element. This configuration is designed for use in a custom crankcase evacuation system or for use with a vacuum pump. Please see Metco Motorsports PN MBR0012-10AN, listed elsewhere in this section.
