Question Breather Caps?

Where's the cheapest place to get a breather cap to replace the oil cap from? Fred (silverlightning) told me at the auto show that i should probably get one to go with my AF1 to free up a couple ponies. Plus it looks cool. lol. I like the one he had with the chrome top and said ford racing on it
Thanks

*edit* i was just reading some past threads on the breather caps that replace the oil cap, and was wondering now if i should even get one. I don't have a chip, so could i still use it? Or would it mess up too much stuff. Pretty much the only reason i wanted it cuz it looks cool for shows but its no big deal if i shouldn't get one. Thanks for any input

We stock them, they are $15 each. Ours have a blank chrome top, I see no reason for someone to spend an extra $10 for Ford's logo on top.

When you put them on, it allows unmetered air to enter the motor. On a stock truck that usually runs pretty rich, you may not have a problem. Some trucks will set a lean code light, some will be fine.

If you are just looking for show, you can get a nice polished billet replacement cap.

Sal at PSPperformance supplied mine. There are others available at other tuners too. It will lean the truck out a little but you could put it on just for shows with no problem. It justs 'screws' in like the cap.

thanks for the help guys. I'd like to get one, (i like the mini filter and chrome top) but probably won't if it will mess stuff up. And i have enough stuff to put on and take off for shows, don't need to add another thing. I guess i'll save up for billet caps for stuff, so i can just keep em on.

thanks again
