I called comp because they were on nationwide backorder. The mold for them was so worn out that the stud holes were no longer lining up properly. The guy said that they should be ready by the first of jan, so I called and put in an order. Comp sells screw in breather stands to screw into the top of the valve cover that just needs a clamp-on breather like the ones from k/n or something.

My friend had them on tw heads with stud mounts and they cleared fine. You need to drill a hole in the top, and either install a grommet for a push in breather, or get the post from comp that screws into the hole you drilled and get a clamp on breather. Why do you need a template, it tells you the size hole to drill?
Oh and sn95, they are 59 bucks, but with a breather and post mine are gonna be like 80-something all together.

The PCV hole in is the back of the lower intake, not the valve cover. Those valve covers are pretty much the same as my Trick Flow ones. All you need to do for the breather is drill a hole insert a rubber grommet, and get a push in breater just like NotchJohnson said.

I considered a set of Comp Polymer covers, but I got a set of Moroso Budget Eliminator (chrome, tall with baffles) a lot cheaper and right away. Comp had some delays with these covers (as stated earlier) so I went with the Moroso, and haven't had a problem with my stud mount rockers.
