I have a 4.8 with a LS6 intake... Will it be better if I use LS6 valley cover or will it not make a big deal and should keep my 4.8 valley cover..

The one and only reason to use an ls6 valley cover is the improved pcv system. Other than that there are no benefits or down falls to one or the other.

In which case you should probably have a vacuum pump and the pcv system becomes useless.
