LS6 PCV conversion??

I've tried searching but can't seem to find an answer. What is involved in converting over to an LS6 PCV? I got one of those PCV's from the dealership without that little valve on the inside (nothing in it), but was thinking of doing the conversion. What parts do you need and how do you do this?

Re: LS6 PCV conversion??

Thanks For those of you who have done this mod, how much did it really cut down on oil consumption? I've only had my car for a little over a month, and changed the oil right after I bought it. The first 500 miles were fairly easy, and it didn't burn anything. This past 500 miles were hard miles, and it went through 1/2 quart, so I'm thinking maybe about a quart or a little more every 3k is about how much mine drinks. Think the LS6 mod would really help many or should I just wait on this until I put an LS6 or LSX intake on later on when it'd be alot easier.

I didn't notice much of a difference on the oil consumption and still get some oil behind the TB, but it cut it down enough that I stopped the KR I was getting.

I'm not that bad, well ok I did that kind of stuff a few times right after I bought it but not now. I do find myself using 4th gear an awful lot when 5th would probably be a better choice.
