    If your oil cap is free flowing that will do one side, could you put a cap on the other side instead of a PVC most alloy R/C have an area for a cap

    Ive got the same covers. I used a pinto cap which has a hose connection. Seperate the top off it then place the PCV inside and glue the top back on. Connect to manifold and the jobs done.
    And it works beautifully and it complies with ADR. Then tick it off your list, ha ha.

    Ok I have a few questions .. what size pipe ? Do I need 2 ?one for each bank ? My air filter has provisions for 2 inlets . I could then drill out a hole on the second r/c . I think the original was a single on one side 5/8" . Cheers
