Ve oil breather line

[velj]

Hi guys I'm going to put a oil catch can on but befor I order one of the cans what size is the tube? Don't want to buy a 12mm one when it's 9 or something.

I measured it to be around 11mm but I could be wrong ask http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/member.php?u=63650 or http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/member.php?u=81918

is that inside diameter or outside?

Going with 9 or 8mm then lol I already ordered one

Which breather line are you going off? You'll find it's more likely a 10mm inside diameter. Just make sure the hose you get is oil safe and not some cheap sh*t that will fail.

Thanks bigjim I don't no il see what ever one fits, haha what one should I be running it off? The one that goes straight into the intake or the hose that goes into the actuall intake silencer box?

He advised me to go into the one that connects to the intake manifold

I've posted in a thread with details on my install, but connect it up to the breather that goes to the centre of the manifold.

Just make sure your catch can has an air tight seal. Mine didn't at first, and it caused all sorts of issues (easy fix though)
