valve cover questions

I would like to replace my stock valve covers with some nice chrome ones.. they are center bolt. I was looking on ebay at them and most of the just have one hole in each valve cover.. now I have the oil fill hole on the ds along with that vent tube that goes to the spacer on the tb. the pass side valve cover has the pcv valve. do I just buy any short center bolt valve covers and make my own holes?

thks

You could just only put in a breather and the PCV. Just fill it up though the breather

Or you could shell out around $150 bucks for Moroso centerbolt valve covers. They have the filler and stock holes for PCV. Putting oil into the PCV outlet won't hurt a thing. Everybody with Edelbrock Elite centerbolt covers do it.

I like these. But I don't see an oiler filler on them either.
