Yeah, with the exchange rate like it is right now it's just too ridiculous. When it levels out again, we'll start selling em again.

I don't know where the rear one is connected to. It looks weird enough that it almost looks like the install was done improperly.

On a side note, does anybody know what size hoses are used for the catch cans? I want to go with steel braded lines for my greddy one.

1 -The small hose off the catch can, on the passenger side, goes to the passenger side valve cover.

2 -The large hose off the catch can, on the passenger side, goes around the back of the engine, and to the rear of the drivers side valve cover.

3 -The large hose off the catch can, on the drivers side, goes to the intake pipe.

-Hose 2 and 3 basically replace the hose that normally goes between the intake pipe and the drivers side valve cover.

-You have to plug the vacuum line on the plenum that the small hose off the passenger side valve cover originally went to, since it's no longer used.

Confusing without pics, sorry. If you look at the pic Marcus posted, hopefully it make a little more sense. Also, keep in mind that with braided line you will have an issue getting the line to go exactly where you want it to. It's real stiff and doesn't bend as easily as rubber, so buy a little more than you think you'll need.

Now... more engine pics please

Yeah, Earl's hoses... I can't remember the sizes, been awhile. I get all my Earl's stuff from the Earl's shop in Lawndale. Sorry, we don't have any catch cans in stock.

^this seems like it would cause a problem. Since the vac line on the lower plenum basically acts as an oil drain; does the oil now just accumulate in the lower plenum?

The oil that previously made it's way throught the pcv valve and into the lower plenum should be caught by the catch can.

Correct what K67p67 said..thats the reason is plugs into those certain areas...

Zack when you say to the bottom of the intake pipe...are you referring to the piece that comes off the top right of the ARC intake pipe when mounted like it should instead of twisted around?

Yes that is correct. Its on the bottom of my intake pipe (UTR), but its at the top right of the ARC intake pipe.
