Default LS6 intake swap what to do w/EVAP ?

Did a search, I swear. My 02 5.3 has a evap solenoid on the intake manifold. I'm swapping in the 6.0 with a LS6 intake and doesn't seem to have a provision for it ......what to do.

Good idea, remote mount. Wasn't sure if it was something that could be eliminated or not. Thanks

It can be deleted with HP tuners. Or at least the code can be deleted.

well i didnt want gas fumes floating around under the hood and that was the most simplest thing i could think of, and it works the same by pulling vacuum.

I thought about just connecting the line to a vacumn port but the idea of the solonoid opening under high vac sounds better. There must have been a reason for GM to do it that way.
