Default Another PCV question...

Before anyone comments, please do not chime in on why you should keep the PCV system. My question is concerning complete removal of the PCV system and running a breather/breathers. Could you connect the passenger side and driver's side valve covers together with a crossover tube and then just run one large metco style breather in place of the oil cap?

I would run two breathers to make sure there is absolutely NO positive pressure in the crank case; it also helps in getting rid of water vapor up top in the valve cover area. JMO.
