Default Sts oiling question...

I've heard of alot of people having problems with the oil blowby on there engines from the valve cover return line on the sts kits. Is it possible to just tap the oil pan and return it like everyone else does, or would this cause problems? Then you could just mount a breather in the valve covers.

That's the best way to do it, just not the easiest.

What makes it hard? Is it just like a procharger kit or one of the other kits where you just take a tap and tap the oil pan, or is there a special place or something special that you have to do? Thanks for responding by the way.

I put mine in the pan.
No oil stands in that part of the pan.
It also clears the rod in that location.

Here's a pic:
