Default Critique my Catch Can setup

I used my own diagram. PCV valve goes in the grommet on the driver valve cover letting air flow out of that valve cover and into the can.

Looks like that should work. You picked up fresh air from BEFORE the throttle, it flows across and thru the engine, then goes to the can before heading to intake vacuum BEHIND the throttle blade. Should be good!

Actually it's getting fresh air from the TB not before it. The rest of what you said is correct.

I guess that's what I meant, as long as it's before the throttle blade. Good luck, eh!
