Re: Looking for a Aluminum valve cover
It's not difficult. I machined my friend's Offy valve cover for his PCV valve.

Re: Looking for a Aluminum valve cover
I used an Offy on one of my sixes. Didn't have a baffle so I used a breather like this to hook the pcv to. It worked like a baffle. Used a clear vac hose on it to watch for any oil getting by. Never saw any.

Re: Looking for a Aluminum valve cover
It's easier to use a baffled grommet like these...
