Default Valley Cover need bigger Outlet?!
Building a 11.4:1, 427NA LS7 Top End, Street/Strip Car.....wondering if the factory 3/8 nipple on the ls6 style valley cover is going to be enough?

Does anyone make or have suggestion on moding the cover for a -8na outlet

Cover has the built in baffle box on the under side...thx

You can remove it totally and run an inline pcv valve.

While your welding the an fitting in, you can fab up some baffles out of aluminum to keep the oil from being sucked thru the pcv.
