Default UPDATE: Custom catch can setup ;)

Turbo install is coming along. Wastgate fits perfectly. My buddy is going to school for cnc so he made me a custom bracket for my catch can. The can is from B&R Fittings. Fittings are AN-12 push lock with Aeromotive Push Lock hose. Very strong stuff. I love how it turned out...very clean look. Lemme know what u guys think.

I noticed multiple things in your engine bay that looks like you take extra steps to keep things cleanly routed and simple

Thanks man! That's what im going for. When i started this build i wanted it to be as clean as i could possibly make it and i want everything to look like it's "meant to be there" the bracket for the catch can actually shines more than the can itself haha.

just a heads up; but for all of the setups I have seen with the breathers in the front of the valvecover, especially with the can lower than the lines;

I have noticed it picking up more oil than the ideal routing; and sometimes excessive amounts. This is because the motor is angled slightly to the front, and the oil tends to get sprayed right into the tubes from the oil jets in the head... But not always.

Looks good!

even with the valve cover baffles still in the valve cover? Even if the oil jets squirt the valve cover wouldn't it just bounce off the baffles and not go into the catch can lines? thanks for the heads up tho and the comments guys!

curious why you have a breather filter on the back of the VC instead of another line to the catch can?

clean

wouldnt matter in his case, he is only running "breather" tubes, he is not running a vacuum setup, that is only a breather setup, so him running a filter on a pipe versus hooking a hose to the pipe then to a filter is all the same.


basically his can is the same exact thing as the filter on the valve cover just much larger and capable of containing oil since it has a "resevoir"

What are you using all the vacuum lines coming off of the log for? I can only think of three things I will need on mine...
