Default Valve cover vent for PCV

Trying to figure out what to do for my valve cover vent! I found this http://www.metcomotorsports.com/prod...BR0003&cat=113 but i wonder how bad the oil smell would be??? i really dont want to drill any holes into the intake, and i cant do anything with the throttle body! Ohh for those who dont know this is for a Fast 90mm intake and LS2 Throttlebody

Are you going to be running a MAF and PCV? Cause if your going to run that breather you can't run a MAF, cause it will let in Un-Metered air...

What I decided to run with my LS6 intake was the following... Because my Electric TB does not have the vent tube like the cable type, and I am not drilling on the intake..

Passenger VC vent line goes to the intake tube, using these

Then

This 1/8 NPT to 3/8 barb fitting screws into the above....

The PCV line will go into a CCA catch can....


Then into the intake...



If you going to run a MAF you can not have any breathers in the system, cause you will suck in Un-Metered air threw it....

well im thinking of using the rear pcv hookup on the pass. side valve cover as the fresh air inlet. i'll need an adapter to use the port on that same side of the intake at the back (some kind of vacumn port)
