Default New Valvecover Question

OK, just did the LS6 PCV mod and received my new valvecovers. I had a PCV bung put into the passenger cover for routing to the throttlebody and an oil filler cap welded in also. Question is: From what I have read is this all that is needed? Are there any breathers needed in either valvecover with the PCV mod? Right now there are NO PCV provisions in the driver's side cover, so is that OK. I am baseing my decision for the covers on JIMx's write up which seems to indicate that no PCV provision is needed in the driver's side cover.

Just want some confirmation before I fire this thing up.


Thanks
Bryan

If you have the LS6 PCV, there is no need for the valve covers to vent at all, you can completly plug those bad boys.

Yes, I forgot about that one.

I'm going to do a little research on the effects of deleting it when I throw my FAST/NW 90 on this weekend.
