I spoke with Rob from RB for quite some time back in August. he recommended doing the valvecover mod, as our valve covers were over engineered. He also suggested installing a catch can in the low position. I took on a different project this winter, and will likely acquire all the parts I can this summer so next winter i can do this swap. He also told me that the lower catch cans catch ALOT more oil. Something to the tune of 1/2 QT per 300 miles.
