What in the hell is up with your typing? Are you German or something?

The LS6 PCV cover still does not stop the oil consumption issues some people have, while the breather stops it ALL. My car feels like it's picked up a couple of noticable HP with no more oil throwin my knock retard through the roof, even in the 100* temps we've been having. People also have problems with blowing oil out of their front/rear seals due to gasses not being able to escape, mine were really bad.

I may consider the new valley cover with the new motor, but right now my stock system can't keep up.

Hey To Each Their Own .. But I Can Say I've Had No Oil Issues After The Ls6 Pcv Conversion... Also The Whole Ls6 Pcv Conversion Was Desgined Specifically To Fix The Problem So I Dont See Whay So Many People Age Tring To Fight With Gm On What They Believe To Be A Proper Fix For A Very Simeple Problem

I did the LS6 PCV conversion and run a catch can. I will say the conversion helped but I still get oil in the catch can so it is not a 100% fix, I would still consider running the catch can with the conversion. I don't have a MAF and run a breather with my PCV system and seems to be fine. It helped with the front seal blowing oil when I run N20. I think if you have a MAF and run a one way breather you would be fine to.
