That 2 into 1 for your catch can is wrong unless you get a check valve there also it will blow boost out.

I just run Valvecover ---> CatchCan ---> VacPump / Turbo

The line that goes from your intake to valvecover to catch can is wrong

That drawing isnt wrong. Its mine. There was 2 of them that I made. The one posted has a line from the valvecover tee'ing to the LS6 cover to the can and then to the inlet side of the turbo. Then one from the other valvecover boss to the intake port with a check valve to pull a vacuum at idle and the check valve closes as positive pressure is introduced.

Oh your right, I made a mistake and thought that was the intake not a LS6 valley cover.

Good call
