Stupid question about valve covers

[dremu]

Bought some new ones that apparently don't have an oil fill hole, so I have nowhere to put my 710 cap =))

More usefully, do I just stick a funnel into the dipstick tube to fill this thing now, like one does for trannies, or am I missing something?

They have the one grommet on each side, one for PCV and the other for the ... uhh, the thing that goes into the air cleaner.

But no filler. Could dump into those, I s'pose, yeah...

but you need the 710 cap!!!

Man without that 710 cap you are going to lose some HP. In all seriousness, just use the breather hole to add oil.

I just bought two edelbrock filter hickys, I just take one out to fill it up. works great. if you remove the 710 cap your def gonna lose 10 horses easy.
