I have a set of unvented valve covers from a dry sump motor. Running it as a wet sump motor now. How did you all vent your valvecovers? Drag only motor. Thanks

Thank you for posting the pictures of the Moroso breathers. I've been looking at those, but just wasn't sure about them. I'll be ordering a set for the new car.

Make sure you put both breathers towards the front and install nice baffles or you make end up installing a catch can like I just had to do

MUST put baffling in valve covers under breather hole before they go to anything else, whether its a breather tank/catch can etc. The vapors need to get out but the oil needs to stay.


Mopar to the bone!!!

Forward location, large tube size. These tubes go very high into the filters that you see. This was on my worn out boosted engine. No problems with oil drips or leakage. Keep the splash gaurds inside the valve covers as far from the tube opening as possible. The more free flowing large area the better. Baffling that restricts air flow creates velocity... velocity pics up oil.
