LT1 evap question

I searched and couldn't really fingd teh answer I was looking for. I'm planning on deleting my stock evap can, capping the line, and venting the cap. What do I do about the LT1 evap solenoid? Can I take it off completely? Can I cap the line at the TB, but leave the solenoid hooked up so the computer thinks it's still there? Can I cap the line from the solenoid to the can, but leave the solenoid to TB line? Or can the S to C line just be open to atmosphere? How would any of this affect anything as far as sucking in air when the solenoid opens? I'll have it programmed out when I have my PCM flashed, but thats a few months off still, so what can I do in the mean time? Thanks for the info.

I asked a similar question not too long ago about just the canistor.

I'm going to try to cap mine directly at the tb without the evap connected. Right now i just have the line out capped.

I'm also wondering if i should get a vented gas cap.

I think you could at least cap both lines in the meantime.
