Looking to change out my valley cover to the LS6 version. Has anyony tried this? Im installing some 44lb injectors so Im gonna have the intake manifold off anyway. thanks.

 

I didnt take my manifold off to swap injectors. Why are you swapping to the LS6 cover? Moving knock sensor locations?

 

The LS6 cover has integrated PCV system. Instead of pulling crankcase pressure from valve cover, it pulls it from under valley cover.

 

The LS6 Valley cover lets you move the PCV to the cover. Consumes less oil. And GM didn't think to much when they designes the intake manifold of the LQ4. the had foam crap traps water which can cause the sensors to give false knock. so just moding it alittle.

 

why are you installing different injectors?

 

I did the swap. Check out my build thread in the build section.

LS6 is on the right, LQ9 / 4 is on the left:



LS6 is on the bottom:

 

I have an oil seperator inline to the ls6 cover and it does collect oil.

 

Upgrading alot of stuff. installing a TR224 114LSA, Harland sharp rockers (there is clearence issues with the PCV ing the valve cover hince the LS6 valley cover) and a tune. just wanting to change them since it'll be on the table.

How is the LS6 valley cover holding up?
