Default ?'s about dual valve catchcan....

http://www.byunspeed.com/product_inf...ducts_id=17761

I'm looking at this RX performance catchcan. I guess it's the old RevExtreme one. Is the dual valving for a forced induction setup? I've searched and searched but every thread seems to have a different opinion about catchcans, and how to route them and whether the PCV shold be kept or whether you need a breather or not.

I'm just trying to keep my supercharger from getting gummed up.

Do I need this catchcan for my FI setup or will the single valve be fine? It's a magnacharged LS1 with a little over 500RWHP.

Would I retain the factory PCV or discard it with this catchcan and breather?

I'm to understand I would want a breather with this, correct?

I'm not sure which valley cover I have. It came with the supercharger kit so I do not know if it's LS1 or LS6 style.

What is the 3rd port on the dual valve catchcan for and where would it go on my setup?

From what I understand for a top mount surcharger like yours you need a single valve setup the dual valve is for centrifugal type charges
