The tb should have come with a 90* plastic hose nipple to screw in. I think it's 3/8" pipe thread. On the intake, the nipple on the driver side is for the evap purge, and the nipple on the passenger side is for the pcv. Since you are doing a swap, you need to block off the nipple on the driver side. If you are running a pcv system (which I recommend), you need to keep the nipple on the passenger side.

Sorry to thread jack, but in looking at this thread, it's dawned on me that my Nick Williams throttle body isn't like the others. Mine has no provision for the PCV connection. It seems to have some sort of black epoxy residing where I suspect that a PCV hose fitting would have otherwise resided. Based on the appearance of the throttle body, I'm guessing this was done before it was machined.
Has anybody else purchased one like this? Do I have any options if I want to retain PCV other than getting yet another throttle body?

It's a 92.
I should have noticed that it was the fresh air feed... it boggles me that you can put a fresh air "Feed" at a spot that's going to be under the effect of engine vacuum.
In any case, where are my alternate sources for the fresh air? I hate to have to plumb something to the cold air intake.

Hmm... I was just re-examining pics of my LS3 intake (once I took pics I put it back in the box and haven't really looked at it since), and I noticed that right behind the throttle body mount, there's a fitting that looks like a fresh air fitting. The only thing is, it appears to draw air from closer to the center of the plenum as opposed to in front of the throttle blade.
The pics I posted don't have the pcv connected. The rear port on the passenger side gets capped, and the rear port on the driver side goes to the catch can then the pcv then the nipple on the passenger side of the intake.

Which TB is that (90, 92, 102)? Mine is a 90...Nick might have redesigned the 92 and 102 and eliminated that fitting. I believe the LS1/6 were the only engines to utilize that fitting. That fitting is just a fresh air vent, so if you still want to run a pcv, you will be okay.
I bought a NW 92mm about a month or two ago and it had the fitting...

These engines have a lot of oil vapor in them. If you've ever pulled an intake off and looked inside, you should have seen little puddles of oil on the floor of the intake. A catch can filters out all of that oil, so that all the air in your crankcase is fresh and clean.

This isn't a bad idea...but, if you plan to run a catch can (like the one from RevXtreme), then it's not a necessity. The RevXtreme can incorporates a pcv valve in the design.

I use the RevXtreme catch can. It's supposed to be one of the best ones (as far as design and function goes). There is one that is better, but it's also much more expensive.
