Message:		Just got a pair of mopar perf. aluminum valve covers. Noticed there is no porvision for a breather or pcv valve, just an oil hole and chrome cap on each cover. I think I can get a grommet that will fit in the hole to put a press in breather or pcv valve and not have to drill a new hole, am I correct? Id rather not drill a new hole if possible. Also, should I run a pcv or just breathers? Im seeing most pics of cars with these covers do not have a pcv. Doesnt the pcv suck crank case fumes out of the engine via vacuum from the carb? Before the pcv they used draft tubes to do this. A breather doesnt suck like the tubes or pcv, wouldnt this be a problem? Am I correct in my thinking? My car will be more street driven than raced. What do you guys do. Thanks
