on the driver's side valve cover there is a box (crank case vent) which vents the crank case into the air intake. all you haver to do is unscrew the box, flip it the other way, and use 3/4 inch tubing to route it over the master cylinder, under the truck, and out into the atmosphere. check out this thread, there is a good discussion about it and a couple of pics.
