PCV Questions?
I'm having some of the same issues. Under boost my breather attached to the STS contol valve belches oil out all over the place. I rigged something up to catch it for now but am looking for a permanent and maintainable solution.
The conversion is not something I wish to do, nor do I know if it will work on the 5.3l truck engine.
Thread over on the truck side......

Hmmmmmmmm...all I did was use the LS6 valley cover, a stock replacement PCV valve (I tried the fixed orifice PCV valve from the trucks, and it was annoying as **** as it whistled, and still sucked oil through) into an AMW catch can, and then back to the manifold. The fresh air source from the TB to the valve cover is plugged, and I use a Metco breather for the oil fill cap for extra ventilation (I tried the new GM vented oil cap, and it didn't vent for ****). My oil pressure is very good (45-50 psi @ hot idle), but I'm still pulling a little oil into my catch can. Passenger side valve cover is plugged.
