JEGS 52225 Polished Billet Aluminum PCV Valve was designed to deliver a top-tier replacement for your engine's crankcase ventilation system. Over time, your PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve will wear out, usually from gumming up; causing an increase in pressure to your engine's crankcase, leading to oil leaks.

Features:

• Height: 2.500 in.
• Outside diameter: 0.975 in.
• 90-degree hose outlet

Note: If you require a grommet for a cast aluminum valve cover, we recommend JEGS 555-50353
