Default Help, what goes here?

Alright, took a look under the engine bay, I have a couple things missing I beileve, does anyone know what goes here? There are 2 pics, I dont have Air/Egr and I cant find the PCV so im sure it goes to one of these or something. Its a 98 LS1 and if anyone has diagrams that would help too. I also see the passenger side valve cover has a cap where a hose can be placed on it, guessing for PCV. Thanks

nah, not worried about emissions. but does that affect anything else? besides emissions? it will throw a code though correct? I dont have egr or air installed nor do i have cats or rear o2s. Maybe i can have the evap deleted from the PCM. As long as it will drive fine without it, ill just plug it as you said. Thanks

pics of this catch can setup? cant i just buy some hose, run it to a splitter and connect it to my intake? I think that would work well.

anyone know how PCV hoses hook up on a 98? ive seen 99+ but no 98 diagrams. The perimeter valve covers dont have the same connections. On the passenger side there is a oil fil hole with a cap in there that has a place where a hose can go on top of it, i could put the pcv there for the driverside correct? Dont know how ima hold the pcv though, id have to have the correct fitting.

i might still have all the correct hose's with fittings at the house. i will not be back in Dallas untill Friday night. if i still have them you could just come by and get them. let me know if you still need and i will look in my spare parts box to see if i kept them or not. if not i can show you how to set it up to route back to the manifold. or i could show you how to bypass. pretty simple.

There is a Y-piece behind the intake manifold that each fitting on the valve cover runs to (back of each cover, I believe). The single end of the Y runs up front towards the throttle body along the passenger side of the intake manifold below the fuel rail. The PCV normally sits behind the oil fill tube.

I can take some pictures and post them up tomorrow if you need.

I took some pictures of the old PCV lines (mine are broken and leak), where all of the connections for the PCV are made, and what I did to reconnect everything.

Sorry for the white balance in some of the pics; my hands aren't really that white.

Hope this helps.
