Do I need valve covers that have three holes or can I use the ones that just have one hole in each side?<br />So I would not be able to use the PCV valve anymore. <br />Thanks, Gary

ya the PCF is a part of the intake system it vents oil gasses from inside the block if you block it off you will have two major problems 1 all of your oil seals will blow out and 2 you will loose performance because of blowby because you will blow out your oil rings.

Well I was going to put an oil breather cap and a breather on the other side. That is the problem right now I have blowby real bad it is already leaking around the grommets for the PCV<br />Thanks, Gary

when i wanted to use thease old 283 valve covers on my 400, i had to make a hole for the PCV... i made it on the SIDE instead of the top, so it wouldnt go over the letters...

id show you pics but i have them on my dads computer and i dont live with him anymore.. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">

someone might have them though... ask in the lounge if you're intrested.... i THINK racer001 should have a copy in this AIM files folder... same with demon.
