Just wondering if anyone has had this problem, have a whipple side mount SC and running a 3 1/2 pulley with 5-7 psi and it keeps blowing out my passenger side valve cover gasket...replaced 3 times now in a 45 day span and is getting costly and need to know why...any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks

Too much crankcase pressure. Get a catch can that will allow the motor to breath and vent out the pressure. Moroso makes a nice one with a filter for this purpose. Jegs has it.... The stock PCV system suck anyway..... I didnt have your exact problem but I had problems with blowing oil out of the filter on my valve cover and soaking the passenger side of the motor. Got the catch can with filter and no more crankcase pressure issue.
