Default new valve covers

im looking at these http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...&Ntt=mor-68202
also http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...&Ntt=mor-68660 and http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...&Ntt=mor-68740

my question is, what about that tube that runs from the front of the tb to the top of the oil filler tube? does the air go from the tb to the valve covers? bobby suggested i use a breather to cover the whole you put oil in and then take it off when its time to put in oil...will this work? will the breather i posted work for that? do i just plug up the hole at the tb?

the tube from the throttle body lets filtered air enter the crankcase so the PCV valve can draw the blow-by gases out of the crankcase back into the intake manifold where they get burned. You can go with the breather caps you show and they will do the same thing, just not as fine a filter as the normal air cleaner is. and yes, you pop one out to use to put oil in the motor. and yes, just plug up the hole at the throttle body if you don't use it anymore.
Why are you going with the tall valve covers by the way?? Just curious.
