If you want a truck PCV valve, I'll sell you mine for a couple of bucks. It helps some people, some it doesn't. I'm one of the unlucky ones.

I don't prtend to know much, but in this post I don't see anything sucking the presure out of the crank case. I know the purpose behind not letting oil enter your intake, but there's a reason it's there right? isn't one purpose of it to draw the pressure out of the engine. I know there's a few old timers around my neck of the woods that would swear that doing this would be just asking for an oil leak to arise.

I would think adding a nice catch can system that goes in line, still using the vacume from the intake would be the best route. just my .02
