When does Nick get back in the shop. I heard he was on vacation or something.

Sorry you misread.

(Nick is back is my understanding XcelwhaminSS).

The big issue is the hose that goes into the side of the intake, that's under vacuum at WOT guys.

My vacuum guage reads 0 at WOT. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Its when your at WOT and you let off that it spikes to what is usually its highest vacuum reading.(20-24inHG on a stock car). <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

I think I read awhile back that for blocks made after a certain date you don't have to remove any material from the block for the valley cover to fit... true?

Ok, I can understand that.

I guess since the pcv pulls from the back of the valve covers(right?) that most of the oil gets sucked up during heavy acceleration anyway not decel. when the oil is moving towards the front of the motor.

I think I'm going with the LS6 valley cover to help eliminate oiling down the intake track. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Sweet, thanks for the pic, I think I got the idea now. I was a little worried about oil injestion when I go to run the turbo. Maybe this will help prevent that from happening. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Guys does anyone know if this will work with a stock LS1 intake? Also does anyone else have any pics?

Couldn't you just tap into the stock valley cover? A little custom job?

Plus the cover has the baffle in the center of the cover. A tapped stock valley cover would pull from the front and may have issues not having any oil baffles <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
