I will be running the valve covers like the engine pictured. They come with or with out an oil fill. I planned on one of each. I am going to run the Edlebrock lifter valley cover.

Does that valley cover have a PCV tube or are you just going to vent the rocker covers ?

Here's what I run... No pcv and I just have the rocker covers vented to a big vented puke can from e bay...
