Can you guys post up pics of where people usually put the upgraded "breather" lines in the the valve cover on DSMs, i got an extra valve cover that I want PC'd and i want to put bigger lines in cause i am tired of the dipstick doing all the venting for me.

Thanks.

My Catch can is right in front of the stock battery, on top of the tranny pretty much.

swing by if you wanna really look at it. or go on talk. mine is where the stock ones where, just welded some fittings on, then drilled out the center to match the bung. Others do a 90 off the top of the vc (not as clean IMHO) otherwise guys like eagle claw did his both from the back, MAP's FDSM has 4, with some crazy ass tubing stuff off the top.

All the random pictures I have saved. I think I'm going to go with a setup like the first couple pictures.

mine was made by jmf. as for line size it is ~8. You really won't need much bigger then that. I'm trying to decide if i need a re circulation line from the catch can to my new intake pipe.
