Something like this. They are stock oil caps from 87-93

Ya, that would work, but I don't like the way that looks. Looks like a mushroom lol. And oil fill tube is near the front of the enging, which makes it easier to put oil in. My mom had an Roadrunner back when I was 5 or 6, i'm 29 now, but it had a cap that slid down over the whole oil fill tube, I've been looking for something like that. I can find a set of valve covers with a cap like that at summit racing, but not just the oil cap.

Well I have my valve covers backwards compared to everyone else. I wanted my fill tube in the back like that.

hey, I have a 91 gt, im havge trouble with mounts too. I need to lower my motor alittle, around 1 inch or more. Do you know of mount that are shorter?? I am running the polyrthyethine mounts now.

Your valve covers look great. Its not a F/I car so you dont have that massive intake hovering over your oil fill cap

Which brand poly mounts did you get? They are supposed to be designed like the vert mounts to drop it down.

if you look through this thread I have posted a couple links of mounts i was thinking about getting. The ones from mustang unlimited you can get at advance auto for cheaper, look up 84 or 85 mounts. there is another link i posted where the mounts don't have arms on them, the bolt flush with the block, they are at summit racing. they might work
