Default PIC REQUEST: "New" LS6 Valley Cover Installed

I'm looking for a picture of the end result of a "new" LS6 Valley Cover swap. The new one has an internal valve and does away with the PCV hoses from what I understand. I'm installing a FAST intake and the new cover was recommended by a few people.

My concern is that 1.) I have no install directions included with the new valley cover and 2.) I have a catch can installed. I'm not sure if this will stay on or be removed with the new style valley cover

This should help: http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?article=18

Also, you can decide if you want to run the can or not. I just Sid the swap and am trying it with no can for awhile to see how it goes.

Don't forget to use the button head bolts that come with the intake, rather than factory valley cover bolts.

Thank you, much appreciated.

I have an 02 C5Z with the LS6, so I do believe my PCV system is different than the LS1 already?

EDIT: I found the info I needed. My 2004 Valley cover came with a new hose to go from the cover to the manifold. The instructions you posted showed the "old" style LS6 Valley Cover which used a different hose. This confused me for some reason!
