Default Another PCV thread

Let's start with the need to know info. I have an LS3 GM crate motor, compete with wiring harness.
It's going into a 1968 Camaro. It's gonna be a cruiser not a racecar.
I think I have it figured out except one thing. I'm gonna attach the drivers side rear tube to the intake after the throttle body. The passenger side tube will go to the intake before the throttle body but after the MAF. If you look in the picture below there's a module, I guess, that attaches to the intake after the throttle body. It has an electrical connection, but nothing in the wiring harness has no connections for it. I was gonna remove it.
Any input would be helpful. Thanks.

That's the Evap solenoid. Unless you are running full emissions, you can eliminate that. Do you have a horseshoe shaped rubber hose connecting from the valley cover to the intake just behind the TB on the passenger side? If so, that is the PCV hose.

That is the evap purge valve solenoid. Not needed on a '68. Your other routing is fine but consider a catch can between the driver's rocker cover and intake vac port to catch all the crud. Cap off the valley cover nipple.

Sorry, another poster beat me I see.

HRD- Yup got that hose. I assume I'm gonna leave that alone.

Iam Broke- I'm considering a catch can but for now I will go without it.

Thank you both for the quick responses.
