I have some aluminum finned valve covers that I'd like to put on my car, but they don't come with the holes for the breather or the PCV. Each cover comes with a Twist in hole, have you ever seen a twist in PCV or breather?

What do you mean by twist in hole? Do you mean like for an oil filler cap, if so then I've never seen a PCV mount in one of those. You should be able to drill or cut a hole in a twist in cap, install the correct sized grommet and then stick in a PCV.

Yep, thats what I mean. I've seen them for Mopar and Ford, but never a Chevy.

Be creative get one for a F*rd or M*par and screw it into your hole. A PCV is basically just a check valve that is sucked open in high vacuum situations to purge the engine of fumes. Your engine won't care if the PCV came from a D*dge or a F*rd, just as long as it works.
