Default Using check valves or pcv valves with vented catch cans?

I want to add a vented catch can to my setup to relieve crankcase pressure on my built motor. I would also like to keep the pcv system.

What if I get a vented catch can with 2 inlet ports, and run a hose from each valve cover to the catch can. Then put a check valve or a pcv valve on each one so that air can exit through the vented can, but not enter.

Anyone have luck doing this? If so what check valves or pcv valves did you use?

Am I wasting my time trying to retain use of the pcv system?
