    Default ls1 oil catch can

    hey guys, just fitted a catch can to my clubby, i have the pcv hose that comes from both rocker covers going in and going out to the intake/pcv valve. what about the small length of hose that goes from the throttle body to the drivers side rocker cover?

    That just stays as is, it is just a fresh airline, you have it setup right.

    cheers for your help, the reason i asked is when i did a search i seen a few other ls1's with it capped off. i only bought a cheap catch can off ebay and its sealed and doesnt have anything inside, and its welded so cant access the inside to put anything in apart from the small hole where the hose fits on does this matter so much?

    Yeah it does i got a cheap one off ebay, this : Oil Catch Can/Tank NISSAN HONDA SUBARU HOLDEN FORD | eBay an it didnt work, i put clear hoses on it an you can see the oil has got though so i put one of these on about a month ago no oil though YET: D1 SPEC OIL CATCH CAN KIT- SKYLINE-SILVIA-WRX-EVO-SUPRA | eBay

    With that fresh air line i dont think it matters wether you cap it off or not i still have mine as i was told to leave it, so i did, I just replaced the black hose with a clear one looks heaps better.

    yeah it does look good, just checked and it would be $16 postage to return it to get a refund of $49, not worth the time. ill leave it on for now and get an elite catch can they seem to be the go from all reports.
