im in the middle of installing my catch can and i removed the oil seperater on the back of the block and i was told to get a Z10 plug to plug up the gaping hole but i called them up and they are not going to have the plug for weeks...does anyone know where to get another???

 

I got mine at Napa, 34.3mm freeze plug. It fits fairly snug, I might seal it with JB Weld just to be safe.

 

alright cool...do you remember about how much this cost you? thanks

 

a buck or two tops?

I got mine for free, have a buddy that works there.

 

lol well thats always good...thanks alot though i was gona wait weeks for the z10 plug.

 

The Z10 plug is nice, but there are other ways to do it! (Especially if Z10 is out of stock and will take a few weeks to get)

Have fun with the project.

 

i bought and reusable rubber freeze plug that after poping in u jus tighten a bolt to make it snug it cost less than 4 bucks at advanced

i kinda bent mine outward a little and used hondabond on it. but 34.3mm is correct.

 

def going to pick that up tommarow, napa is right around the corner...im waiting for my fittings for the back of the block for the catch can, gona hook that up tomarrow. how many of you have breathers on the front of the valve cover? i like the look of it and im sure it helps alot, how hard is that to do would i have to buy a new valve cover?

I just found a used valve cover, stripped it. Had a shop drill the two holes, weld the aluminum fittings and voila!

 

i went overkill on mine but i want it to breathe. i powdered mine though.

 

Looks like the same Summit fittings I'm planning to run

 

actually they are a shelf fitting from a local speed shop to me and he did a buy in to have his name put on fittings, only bad thing, to keep costs down they only offer bends up to 90* BUT they are half the cost of the aeroquip. and just as good. i have a 50 -50 mix of his fittings and aeroquip.

I heart Summit

 

summit is great. i order from them all the time.
but this place, bill norris' positive performance, it is like a grocery store for fittings. it is more an automotive plumbing store than a speed shop he hee.

this is his old shop but you see what i mean:

 

How do you make it so the Honda symbol and the DOHC stuff comes out so clean?

 

A little vaseline carefully smeared on the logos, then paint.

 

Boostedcivic, holy crap! I'd go nuts in there! I bet they can make SS hoses any length with any fittings while you wait... *drool*

 

i know they have a coupling press, but i have always made all my stuff, and had a local hydraulics shop make p/s hoses.

friend powdered my vc, and he just masked it well and kinda 2 sepped it when he sprayed the silver over the black.

 

i wana make the breathers on the front on the valve cover, just those 2 would be good enough for me, what kind of fitting do i use and what size?

 

mine are -12 i think it is a little overkill, but it is what i had and what i used. -10 should be fine.

Just paint over them and hit them later with a di-grinder with an aluminum surface gasket cookie on it...

 

have any of you done this yourself or do you suggest to have a shop drill the holes and weld the fittings on?

 

Unless you're able to weld aluminum, let a experience welder take care of it. A local shop quoted me about 40-50 bucks to weld two fittings.

 

jb those bitches lol
