First off, I've searched the forum and internet too much and it's just confusing me so I'm going to let my thought out on here and see what happens.

I have a 04 LQ4 with a carb that I'm trying to crank today with STOCK valve covers. Im wondering how do I run this PCV. There is a nipple at back of drivers side valve cover and one at front of passenger side valve cover. How do I put a pcv valve in this setup or do I actually need one? I was thinking run a breather on nipple in passenger valve cover and a hose from driver valve cover to rear of carb BUT i dont have a pcv valve. WTH gives here??? Do i buy a valve or something?

Or am I looking at this wrong? I'm not looking to purchase a catch can if I dont have to. How do this needs to be ran?

I have a PCV line on mine, running to the base of the carb (Edelbrock Thunder AVS), but may change that to the intake manifold.

My driver valve cover has the pcv made in it, it slides in a grommet. I run a hose from rear of Carb to pcv in driver valve cover and a breather on passenger side. Use an inline pcv if your vc doesn't have a grommet.

My driver side doesn't. It just has the nipple there. But I just put 2 filters on it, hope that holds good.

Only thing left now is to get this darn Edelbrock throttle bracket set up right..smh

You can see my PCV set up in this post of my build thread:
