Do you happen to have any part numbers for an LS6 one? I see in an earlier post you mentioned to somebody about removing the orifice in the LS6 valley cover. Is this to create more flow?

Just wanted to check I'm not completely misunderstanding the above, shouldn't the flow go from the inlet pipe to the rocker cover (green line)?
AC Delco part number for the LS6 PCV is 19313320. You will probably need the entire assembly with the boot; the assembly part number with PCV valve is GM part number 12573109.

I'm not aware of a removable orifice in the LS6 valley cover. The LS7 has a fixed orifice in the valley cover.

I did have the arrow and date incorrect on that drawing. Here is the corrected drawing.

posts 188 and 191 were what I was referring to.

Also, I don't know if it's my browser but I'm seeing alot of references to diagrams but the diagrams aren't showing.
post 70 for example.

Posts 188 and 191 were for a LS2 valley cover which does have fixed orifice PCV valve built in.

I had many diagrams hosted from an old web hosting account that I no longer have. All of those diagrams are missing because the host is gone. It was prior to this site hosting attachments like it does now. If you need a diagram or have a question, post or email; I'm happy to help.

Recently upgraded to LS6 valley cover but it’s the older style one that doesn’t have a PCV built in. With the way my catch can mounts, there’s not much room to put the PCV valve on the catch can inlet and it fits better going between the outlet of the catch can and the intake manifold, is that fine or does it need to be on the inlet?
