Thumbs down help with coil packs

Hey guys so i have a 98and did thE ls6 top end conversion . My coil packs are now on coil bracks and center bolt stlye covers.i have now discovered that on 98 each coil is specific to what cylinder it should be on. I believe i may have mixed them up. Does anyone know how to tell in what order they go? Or how to tell?

Coils are interchangeable, did you hook up your PCV correctly, sounds like too much pressure

It shouldn't. Heres the thing with pcv. I have ls6 valley cover. But the previous owner removed the black piece that makes it function as a pcv. So i put an inline pcv between intake and valley cover. It only does it while cranking car and its warmed up. When car is cold it runs fine amd idles. Car wont idle anymore once its warm.
