Default PCV oil catch can install for a 2002???

Hi, I ordered a PCV oil catch can from CCA and their instructions for 2003 and up seems simple. But, the directions for 97' - 2002' seem more complicated (to me).

Can someone please show me a pic, or tell me how to do this - thanks.

I have 2 2002's - one with the stock PCV setup and one with the Z06 conversion. Both have a catch can which are similarly hooked up.

The stock setup has the lower hose hooked to the intake manifold just behind the TB while the upper hose goes to the PCV valve. The PCV valve is still connected to the PCV hoses coming from the valve covers. Here's what that setup looks like.




The Z06 PCV setup is hooked up the same except that the PCV valve goes to the valley cover but still to the upper hose of the catch can.
