In cases where problems due to inadequate crankcase breaking is experienced on early 1956 Corvettes and High Performance Passenger Cars, the late type Crankcase Breather Assembly (Cap) should be installed.

The new Breather Assembly, with breather holes and gauze element, is the same as used in current passenger cars except that it is cadmium plated.

New Breather Assembly is now being used in production.

The early type (closed cap) is designed for reducing oil pull-over on units used for racing purposes.
