Since this photo....I have gotten rid of the line going to the Charcoal canister and changed the PCV to one from an early 80's GM V8.

This is exactly how I still run mine, with the evap connected. No issues whatsoever. Good baffles and minimum blow-by are the ticket!

If you want better ring seal and some horsepower along with your crankcase venting, look into a vacuum pump. The ones from GZ motorsports are street friendly! www.gzmotorsports.com https://www.gzmotorsports.com/CPVK10...-pump-kit.html
