also that is for an LS6 still PCV, if you have an LS1 style valley cover then all you would do is run the top line from the PCV hose that runs down the passenger side of the intake to the top of the catch can, then the bottom hose of the catch can would go to the intake

your specific catch can



you can see the top hose running off the PCV line coming down the intake like i described. the bottom hose runs to the intake manifold.

They are about $100 shipped.
I am pretty sure they are universal with all vehicles.
Mine came for free with the car.

I like it because you can actually see how much oil the can is catching.
Here's you a link for one on ebay.

They can be found all over...

The Greddy can is terrible.
I had purchased one for my truck after it arrived I realized it was a piece of junk and spent two hours modifying it as to where it would work.
There are others on the market that work perfectly without adaptations.
The Greddy is now on my Bimmer.

LS2 TB has no PCV? You need the "fresh air tube" going from the valve cover to in front of the throttle body blade.

This port is always at a higher pressure than the PCV inlet behind the blade, which causes air to circulate into the crank case. Without this fresh air tube, you might as well run a breather.

If I am not mistaken ,,,you may want to check with your tuner,,that would be a introduction of un-metered air and can effect your tune parameters.
Not too mention any Oil bound vapors would then saturate your T-Blades.
