Stupid problem -cant find oil cap at stores

350 TPI... been to 2 diffrent parts places both gave me the wrong oil fill cap. So i went to the isles to find one that looks like it would work... none i could see there.

i tried the oil fill rubber cork from my 2.8 v6 camaro on it, and it fit.

where did you guy and gals get yours?
magic part number?

Re: Stupid problem -cant find oil cap at stores

Is there a u pull it j/y or used parts outlet near you? If so try there. Or you can order an OEM one from Classic Industries, I realize you are in Cananada and that may be a pain in the rear to do...
