Default Help with Oil Cap

Last fall i installed fuel rail covers on my LS1 camaro and i noticed the other day that the oil cap is rubbing on the covers. Is there any extension you can put in place of the oil cap (if you know what im trying to explain) and i was also thinking of a breather but ive heard some bad things about them, anyone help me out?

You can look online to see if you can find a smaller cap. I am running LS6 covers with a aftermarket cap and have had no problems.

My dad owns an auto parts store and i know there are many different styles you can get your caps on ...if you want an extension ive never seen one on a camaro but i know like grand prixs have them so who knows you might be able to find them for a camaro

Are you sure the cover is down all the way and nothing is pushing it up?

Hey cbr600rx7 i looked today and it couldgo down slightly further but it cant because of my throttle and cruise control cables. the metal mounth that the cables are hooked to is just catching the covers..
