Okay, so everyone with the LNF and painted valve covers. Did you have to remove the fuel line that goes over the corner of the valve cover or are you able to get the valve cover out without doing that?

I was thinking of painting my valve cover red, would you guys recommend using a clearcoat over the red?

And my last question. I generally bake my parts in an oven to harden the paint and make it resistant to solvents. Since I'll still have a number of hoses attached I probably can't do what I normally do (30 minutes @ 250f, 30 minutes at 400f, 30 minutes at 600f). I was thinking maybe just 250f, can the hoses handle the temperature?

Ummmm, hate to tell you this guys but your motors are all put in the wrong way. Valve covers are supposed to be in line with the car, not sideways. Just sayin.

Summit. The PCV ones actually aren't full AN hose ends (except for the ones on the catch can), they're just the fake covered hose clamp kind. Braided steel lines are kinda overkill for PCV as it is, I didn't think I needed to get any more ridiculous.
