You'd be creating a boost leak LOL... Mines just ran from each vavle cover to the can. And that's it. Anything that happens to get pushed out just goes to the can and that's it... Simple.

my one question is if you look at some of the pictures I posted it shows a pcv with the ls6 cover. I thought you did not need a pcv when using the ls6 cover?

Doing the same. No PCV valve. 2 1" rubber hoses from the valve covers to a catch can with a little KN filter on top.. Seems to work great.

Only thing I am going to change is replace the KN filter with a hose going to the base of the passenger turbo air filter to suck the blow by vapors back into the engine. When ever I pull to a stop, you can catch a faint whiff of oil vapor.
