Default Anyone block off PCV Tube using the AMW Can?

Using the AMW Catchcan, with the drivers side into the can and then out to the intake, but the passenger side is running straight into the tube at the top pass side of Throttle Body. Has anyone routed different or blocked off the TB tube as to not draw in straight from the valvecover?

I routed all PCV stuff out of the car Tried almost everything but the oil always found it's way to the intake. Blocked the TB line and now running tubing ( from heads and ls6 valley cover ) through filters under the engine.

I did the LS6 valley cover for that reason.

Not expensive and easy to do. It helped some. In conjunction with the catchcan there is no oil on my intake. I also added more mesh to the catch can.

I have seen the write up on the LS6 Valley cover, but kind of lacking a mental picture. Does it route the PCV so there is only one line and routing around the TB? Will look at the write up again, but pics do me more justice. Thanks guys.

LS6 PCV setup : single tube from valley cover to intake through pcv valve, fresh air tube from tb to pass valve cover.

If you do this mod to ls1 you need to block the stock pcv fittings from the valve covers.
