Default Ls3 408 Magnuson 2.3L air intake and maf delete having problems with with pcv

So I'm running a 408 with a 2.3 heartbeat on my 2014 Zl1
I did a maf delete and therefore an air intake delete but I'm having issues with oil mist and oil spilling out my passenger side valve cover nipple at WOT so I'm looking for a solution for the pcv system as i don't think a catch can and a breather would be enough I'm thinking about using bigger valve covers with an oil inlet on each one as well but that's still not an optimal solution i guess so any other ideas will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'm thinking scaling the PCV system up (larger hoses and catch can, etc) it could work since the engine and breathing capabilities are both a ways above "normal".
It's a matter of having the capacity to move the increased vapor volume being generated by the larger displavement, huffed engine.
