I'd suggest going with the MP valve covers. They are higher in height than
the stock so the oil baffles would not have to knocked out for the 1.7 roller
rockers. The MP cover for the PCV valve has two holes in it. You could
put the PCV valve in the hole closer to the rad end rather than the one
closer to the firewall. On the driver's side, you could go with the open
air type of breathers.
