Default Those with an LS6 valley cover and boost guys come in please!!

How are you running your pcv system with a boosted motor and LS6 valley cover? I am routing this stuff soon and want to do it right the first time,I have read a bunch of threads and have not seen a definitive answer! Are you still using a pcv valve and catch can?with air breather or not?I don't think my last setup with the procharger was right as I was seeng a LOT of oil in the charge pipe so I want to make sure it is right this time!Thnks for the help guys!

I gave up, the pcv system was allowing oil into the intake with an LS6 valley cover and catch can. Now I pollute the air and leave a puddle in the driveway.

Damn,I was hoping to get some positive response's.I don't want to deal with the "oil" smell at all,and I definately don't want to be pressurizing the crankcase.

PCV valve will plug into a nipple at the front of LS6 valley cover. Plug your existing/stock rocker cover PCV location. The LS6 cover should come with a rubber hose adaptor to accomadate your PCV valve. Very simple & clean install. Mine dosen't pass any oil at all.

I'm planning on trying a "pan-e-vac" system, the system that uses exhaust pulses and a reed valve to suck the crankcase fumes into the exhaust pipes. I'm going to tee the valley and valve covers into a catch can, and then into the exhaust. I hate the smell of the fumes, too. It's not oil, it's unburned fuel. I'd rather clog up the cats with the blow-by instead of putting it into the intake.

What do you do with the passenger side valve cover line? and are you running any filters?
