bingo.

guys still need to verify where to put this one way check valve to keep boost outta the crank case.

also ideas about DOD and turbos... should be fine in DOD mode because the truck is in vacuum, and once i touch the throttle it kicks into V8. shouldnt be a problem, right?

You should have 2 hoses that go to the crank case..

one is from the intake manifold to the driver side VC where the PCV should be..
and theres one from the intake to the passenger side VC..

you could put 2 Check valves on it.. one on each side. ???

dunno about the DOD crap..

No, you should cap the TB port and vent or catch can the valve cover port on the pass side. It still REALLY needs to breath when your in boost cus there is gonna be some blow-by in boost and it has to have a place to go.

Put the check valve on the drivers side PCV tube, so it can't blow boost into the crank case but can still pull vac for ventilation.

Have your tuner turn off your DOD, it's bad for the motor anyway, Ask Stock48, he's fixed a few of those motors for his dads dealership.
