I am working on a plan to install a oil bypass filter system in my car, 2015 Eco. I want to use an aftermarket flat filler cap IOT install the return swivel connection. Turns out somewhere along the way, GM installed a baffle type of adapter and installed a different filler cap compared to the 2011. Research has lead me to believe that the Gates 31291 or Stant 10140 will easily fit on 11 - 12, and likely all the way to my 2015 if I toss the baffle and cap.
I want to know why GM installed the baffle shown here, and if anybody replaced said baffle and or cap with the Stant or Gates items listed above.
Who knows, maybe somebody dressed up the engine with a shiny aftermarket cap.
Thanks in advance.
