Hey ya'll, watch this
Just got my new 5.0 valve covers. No holes. Question. What is the best, a breather in each cover, 1 breather and a pcv, something else?

I have one vented into the air filter and the other with a PVC.

Doesn't really effect performance and is all around cleaner for everybody involved.

I just did a breather on each one. I did both to the front of the motor in between the rocker arms of 1-2 cylinder and 4-5 cylinder where I would have room from them to hang down in the covers
