Default valve cover venting?

any real reason why you are all venting the valve cover out the front instead of the back? i need to do this soon as i have popped out two cam seals already at the track. thanks

if you look inside the valve cover on the frontside, there is a nice baffle that will keep liquid oil out of the lines.

ya but if its restricting liquids its going to be restricting pressure. i was going to run two clear lines off the back of the cover straigh down into the stock catch can. of course i would have to modify the catch can slightly, but i think drilling two holes in it should do.

No no no no, do a little research about baffling, and how it works.

Or you can make something like this!

Had my lil bro weld and make me a catch...not bad for a first timer on aluminum...

Im to lazy to polish this stuff myself...mite get it all chromed powdered soon..

I give credit to Tony1 on the design idea!

What are the holes at the top of the catch for? Are they for extra ventilation? Are you putting two more filters on top?
