ls1 oil catch can

[johnno010684]

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.

Didnt try, 50 bucks pfft im not that hard up for cash, i had it on the car for about 3 months so i dont think they would have taken it back. if yours is still in the box unopened they might ???

 

[johnno010684]

i think i might try, ive got it on car and only ran it for about 30 secs to put car back in shed after i washed it.

One thing about the auto platonium one it does look the goods under the bonnet the other one i have now in black doesnt standout looks stock but that is kool.

 

[johnno010684]

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.

 

[DLFHUB666]

Yep, elite for sure bro i just cant justify $200, i hope the d1 spec i have now works if not ill pull it apart an stuff some steel wool inside, really should have done this stright up but its on now see how it goes.
