FE valve cover grommets

Post by Comet »

My 390 needs grommets for the pcv on the valve cover. I bought a set from Mac's but they are the wrong king and they do not list any others for the FEs. The one they have is way too small and does not have the type of fitting to fit around the twist and lock metal stamping. Anyone know where I can find these new?

Should be: RUBBER GROMMET, valve cover to PCV valve (p/n C7AZ-6A892-A)

These guys supply most of the mustang joints too, so you should be able to pick it up from NPD or Mustangs Unlimited.

Thanks! BTW, their search engine sucks! It didn't find the part, but I got it after a very dumbed down search (grommet). Part no. is F2143 01
Thanks again. I'll go re-measure the hole and order it if it fits.
