Vintage Speed Porsche style oil filler/ breather

[dubnut62]

Hi, is anyone running the VS stainless steel oil filler/ breather with the Wolfsburg West okrasa kit? Does it clear the original style linkage that comes with the WW kit? I'm thinking of fitting one but looking at the space on my setup, I've only got a few centimetres spare.
Thanks,
George

Also curious. George, did you try it?

No, not yet, but it's been ordered. Delivery time to the UK is 8 to 10 weeks I've been told by my parts supplier.

Chased it last week with my parts supplier. Theres problems with getting shipments from Taiwan and China I've been told, so still waiting

I know, its frustrating but I chose to order with a UK parts supplier rather than direct from VS. Didn't want to risk it getting damaged in transit as they're not cheap!

Any updates?! Would like to see pics? I am thinking of getting one too but am unsure if it will clear my hex bar.

Ended up cancelling my order and ordering direct from VS. I'm hopeful that I'll get it in the next few weeks

So if finally arrived. Well packaged and fitted in minutes. It fits, just. Slight rubbing on the linkage but I'll do some clearancing at the weekend. So if you are using the WW Okrasa kit with the original style linkage you should be ok.

That looks great!
