Any reason I can't put valve cover breathers on both valve covers ? They have some at Auto Zone that would fit over the plastic fittings already in place.
Thanks

The PCV system wouldn't work properly and you'll have an excess of sludge build-up inside the engine (not to mention the possibility of leaking valve covers). The PCV system removes the oil "steam" and pressure from the crankcase. If you want to put a breather on the valve covers...just replace the one where the factory breather sits (the one that connects to the airhat).
