I got mine from WS6 store. If you wanted to you could make one yourself, it's pretty simple.

The RevXtreme peice has a built in pcv, it's a very nice unit and its part of a system with a breather. The home depot verison is not bad for being home made, its not of the same caliber or operation how ever.

dont waste your money, run two rubber hoses from your your vent tubes on the valve covers down the front pass side of the engine and let hang on the bottom, put rubber caps on the intake and tb nipples, then throw a breather in the oil fill tube and call it a day, and spend your money on something useful.

they wont be vented properly! thus resulting in the oil getting dirty and contaminated faster!! the gases will stay in the motor

And then at speed one will create more negative pressure due to the venturi effect than the other & you will suck dirt, dust, sand, water, gravel, and who knows what directly into your motor.....real good way to ruin in in short order. It will take a little longer than pouring sand directly into the oil fill cap....but not by much. Only one idiot out there dumb enough to recomend that mod and he dosen't have a clue as to the internal workings of an engine. It also does not provide any flow at idle & low RPM's when it is needed to pull the harmful vapors out.
