Default PCV catch can help

I just installed my PCV catch can and wanted to make sure it was connected correctly. The instructions were not Corvette specific. Maybe those who have installed one before can verify my installation.


The yelow line is the tube coming from the intake valley into the top of the catch can. The green line is coming off the throttle body going into the lower port on the catch can. The purple line is the the inline PCV valve. Note the direction the PCV is installed. Does this look right? I wanted to make sure it was right before driving it.

Thanks!

If your line is coming off of the valley cover then you have an LS6 valley cover and can eliminate the PCV valve atleast I did when I had one on my car, other than that it is hooked up right.

Yes, it is the LS6 intake. There shouldn't be any harm in leaving the PCV valve?? This would keep me from having to supply a new line.

Thanks!
