Default 1 way breather on valve cover.

So I found a valve cover breather cap that only allows air out and not able to enter. How would you use something like this and the pcv on a turbo ls6? They claim the pcv stays in tact and when you hit boost it vents the pressure out of the breather. Not sure on how I would use this, any help is great!

Since they aren't a sponsor I wont post the company name but here is the description on it.

makes it easy to vent the crankcase on your GM LS series engine with our new billet valve cover breather kit. This kit is a direct replacement for your factory oil fill cap and allows unwanted crankcase pressure to exit.

This breather is the ONLY one in the market which incorporates a check ball to keep unmetered air from coming through while the crankcase is under vacuum. In other words, this breather acts just like a factory oil cap under normal driving conditions and when you get into boost it will release any crankcase pressure present.

This kit also has an integrated baffle to help contain any oil particles present in the engine rather than saturating the filter element and eventually leaking through like many other kits in the market.
The filter element is washable and has a chrome top for great looks. The pre-oiled cotton fiber traps dirt particles without restricting air flow.

Although this kit was designed for use in racing applications, it works and looks great on any engine compartment.

can you pm me where to look at the cap. i wouldnt think you want the stock pcv setup in a turbo application tho... there are diagrams on here that show a better way to plumb it to prevent oil mist into the intake which can cause problems.
