Re: (alfee)
are you just trying to take the bov of the flange. You will need a 90 degree c-clip pliar. spread them apart and then pull it should come right off

Re: (redturbocivic)
yep, well i went to kragen and bought a cheap o ring snapper tool w/ the 90 degree hooks and it was a bitch to take off.. actually it didn't even come off.. kinda messed up the tool too. so i returned the cheap *** tool.. maybe will stop by sears and get a craftsmen set. just still hopeful right now i guess...

Re: (alfee)
i thought there was some sort of a flange where you clip the bov onto, then bolt that onto the pipe which is already setup for bolt on? maybe i'm wrong...

Re: (b18bturbo)
hrmm $20 shipped for the aluminum flange, sounds good. ok since my car is in the shop, i will notify them to see how much they can get a flange for, if it's more than 20 bucks then i'll buy it from you... i'll get back to you on here.. thanks!
