    Re: Catch Can Install

    Or keep your plastic PCV line intact.
    Get a length of 3/8" ID fuel hose and make yourself 2 hoses.

    Hose1
    From the nipple on the left rear valve cover to the inlet of your catch can.

    Hose2
    From the outlet of the catch can to the right front side of the intake manifold.

    Re: Catch Can Install

    I recently purchased an Elite catch can and they are so well made and easy to fit.
    The Elite catchcan might be a little pricey but it only took 15mins to fit and that included putting a 2-5deg bend in the bracket so that the inlet hose cleared the LS2 map sensor.
    After a couple of days driving there is already a few mil's of oil in the can.

    Unless your engine is in really poor condition a sealed one will work perfectly and be legal,
    Vented catch can are actually illegal on EPA grounds.
    I konw they are expensive but i fitted the Elite Catch Can and couldn't be happier wit fit and how it works.

    ok bumping up an old thread. where would i get one of these inline filters?

    I just finished making up my new catch can out of a piece of 4" stainless exhaust tube. Here is a pic of it before the last dash fitting was welded on.

    Re: Catch Can Install

    guys this is a little confusing, ive got a cv8 monaro with ls1, its got a v1 vortech blower not intercooled at the moment but will be soon, can some one please post up how i can conect up a catch can to it, i also need to know if i have to run a vanted or sealed? ive noticed when i stand on it it pushed the hose off the passenger side rocker cover and blows oil out all over the place....also notice that every now and then the oil pressure light comes on and the dash starts beeping this is during normal driveing and also having fun...could this be due to the s/c causing crank case pressure and pushing the oil to the top of the engine and starving the pick up??would a catch can fix this???its worrying me incase the engine seazes,
