Default Is this pcv set correct?

sorry guys i don't know how to upload pictures into a current thread. However is this setup now correct? The top line has the pcv valve in it and going to the valley cover. The bottom line goes straight to the side of the intake manifold.

Also don't some guys disconnect the line going from the throttle body to the valve cover?

so after all you do have the LS6 valley plate then...

to be honest i am not sure if that is correct maybe someone else can chime in.

Also you can do a search for LS6 Valley Plate or Catch Can under Generation III External Engine

Pictures of my setup are attached below and they are from a couple of different angles.

I did the LS6 valley plate conversion last month and used the ls1howto.com sites guidlines for runing the PCV system. I then installed the can as the manufacturer stated to.

It looks like our setups are the same.

You need a filtered fresh air source. I believe that if you run a breather on the valve cover, you can delete the line from the TB (more common in FI applications).
