Default Venting crankcase pressure

I was just wondering what more I could do to vent more crankcase pressure from my motor other than the off the front of the passenger valve cover through the solenoid from the sts kit which I have ran to a catch can, And I also replaced the oil cap with a OEM replacement breather. I was hoping to do more with out having to pull the valve covers and weld. Thanks guys

Put a breather on the drivers side valve cover too, where the PCV plug is in the rear of the valve cover.
