Default Pics of Blow off valve install

Does anyone have pictures of either a blow off valve or diverter valve installed on their 5.0? I want a BOV however i heard that with mass air you need to recirculate the air back into the intake tube rather than with a BOV that vents into the atmosphere. Any help is appreciated. thanks

He's N/A but loves the sound of a good BOV so he figured he's install one.

i assume you're running a blower. you don't have to reroute it back into the intake if you have it mounted before the maf. that is if you're running a blow thru setup. if not then you need to have the discharge go through theintake after the mafagain after it blows off. the air is already metered and if you release it to the atmos. it will make your a/f go pig rich.

Not sure I ever said there was something wrong with having one. Especially considering the fact that I have a Procharger supercharger myself...hence the need for a bypass / blowoff.
