Default PCV/crankcase Evac with Drawings, need Help

Guys help me figure out my PCV/ crankcase Evac setup on my LT1 D1SC motor.

Here is 4 drawings that I came up with for the setup can I want you guys to explain to me which one would be better and why?????
I didn't draw in VC filters or inserted Check valves b/c frankly I really didn't know where They would be needed. Thanks Fellas.

BTW I have MAD Paint skills, lol.[IMG]IMG][IMG][/IMG]

I've been down this boat for a long time and can relate. I did breathers for both VC's and I'm running the PCV to the catch can w/ the filter on the catch can. Some said running the PCV to the inlet hat of the blower would cause oil to coat the blades. My ports on the TB are capped off as well as the fitting on the intake. I own a 93 so it should be the same.

Where at from the PCV?? From the the drivers side of the intake or from the spot under the TB, like I have pictured above???

How is the venting from just the Breathers and do you not have to have anything pull vaccumm out??? I see a lot of people run catchans to breathers and Vent to atmosphere but don't they need an intact tract to pull vaccumm or is it different with FI?

Thanks for the reply anyone else?

So you run a hose of some sort from the pcv on driver side intake to a catch can and then to the suck side of turbo?
Oh and nice drawing!

Mine will be up and going hopefully in a few months. But this is what I am going to try. -10 from the PCV valve (side of LT4 intake) with a 1 way check valve in place (that way it doens't boost the motor) and a air/oil serpator in place so oil does not get into the self-contained blower. No filters, just 1 line from the PCV valve to the suckside of the blower. Think of your PCV system as a Vaccuum cleaner, poke a small hole in it and it will not suck or pull air as well. Same concept IMO on filtered PCV systems.
I'll try it out and see what happens I guess.
