Wouldn't recommend it.

Edit: It's actually part of the PCV system. Need to leave it well enough alone.

Yeah, it's there for a reason. You could probably tap the valve cover.

That would be my suggestion. You should also contact the retailer you got the valve cover's from and see what they have to say about it.

Yea, cobra232 bought some valve covers and had to do some extensive mods to make them work.
