Default BOV question

i have a universal greddy type s (purple cap) blow off valve... i stripped the threads on the inside where you adjust the screw for the volume of the BOV... is there a place that sells just the purple cap (top part of the bov) by itself ??? i remember seeing a site on here but i cant find it anymore... any help would be good

and yes, i know... pretty random

just take the cap off, drill it out and then retap it with a larger tap and just get a larger bolt to go in it, problem solved

LOL i was thinking that, BUT i'm sure the screw has to be a certain length... and a certain type

not really, the screw just compresses the spring inside the cap, however it does fit in an indentation on the cap of the spring, you can just file the bolt down slightly to make it work.
