Default LS6 valley cover and breathers?

For those that have switched to the LS6 valley cover... I'd like to run a breather on each valve cover. Is anyone doing this? If so, have you had any issues?

Thanks,
Tim

The main reason for running the LS6 valley cover is the improved PCV setup.

Running breathers on the valve covers will defeat the PCV system, result in loss of power, increased oil contamination, shortened engine life.

Yeah I agree, it defeats the purpose.
