I just added the LS6 valley (with built in PCV) and LS6 intake, and I used the 4 way LS1 coolant tubes under the intake. You have to do some pretty good bending to get the stock crossover to fit tight to the valley, but the intake went down flat after grinding the ribs. If you take the time it will work, but it definitely won't bolt right together as-is.

Which LS6 Valley Cover is more desireable and why?

Also what did you guys pay for your upgraded valley cover?

NE1 have the pt # for the cover WITH the pcv in it??
That way, both #'s will be listed, so folks can make a choice.. And do the "order thing" only 1 time.
As for the rear coolant x over.. Why not just plug the rear, and do away w/ the line hassle? The later engines, such as my 05/6.0 has only the ft tubes..
[Hasn't this been hashed over, B4?]
