The only thing I don't like about this is that metal caps seem to stay hot for ever. Looks cool though.

Roland found some like that a year or two ago, but they said 7.3 on them.

Just a hint. If you get one and the Powerstroke part is a sticker, put the oil cap on first and tighten it down, then put your sticker on so it faces the direction you want it to.

Ha, I added this to my "watch" list the other day. Good tip about the sticker, Chris. I would have messed that up for sure.

The metal cap is attached to the plastic extension tube, so it doesn't absorb the heat. I can remove mine after some hard driving and it's barely even warm from the under hood temps.

Got mine from ESR Performance Corp for $24.90 shipped. The bid price for this has already surpassed that. Funny thing the ESR Perf is located in the same town. They did have BIN items back when I purchased mine. I had to ask about a different logo and he emailed me the design. I said "Looks good! Let's go for it!"

Thanks for pointing that out for us!

I don't think the one Mike mentioned will be going for any bargain, now. LOL

Thanks Roland. I sent him an email, if I did it right, through the link.

Here is my new billet cap. He will anodize them too. I just wanted mine plain. He will be making me a billet engine cover for my cummins too.

O well, got confused with another E-Bay add where it said 10 or more. Roland's cap and source seem's to be the way to go, might go there myself now..
