I think people usually run ss lines with a fitting welded onto the downpipe. I could be wrong though

I bought a 6" long cast iron nipple at a local plumbing/HVAC supply house. I took it to the chop saw and made a 45degree cut. Than I mimic'd the Moroso piece's lil pie like cutout and made 2, 1/2 inch deep 45degree cuts. I'm not sure why Moroso did that but I figured they have plenty of $$$ to drop into R&D and they wouldn't waste their time/money on a needless cutout.

I'm confused to how my setup is currently working. I have a breather on the stock nipple on the back of my valve cover, it still drips a bit of oil. I can tell the slashcut tube to my downpipe is working as I leave trails behind me. But my catchcan is pulling barely anything into the can itself. Any ideas on how to remedy my driping breather, it seems as if its not setup correctly, but I'm almost positive it is.

Piping, lol, I guess I should read closer next time... I just used 1/2 id fiberglassed reinforced plastic housing and put a heat resistant sheathing over it and than wrapped that in double thick heat reflective tape. I actually screwed up and welded the nipple in so my dumptube blasts right onto my plastic hose, its lasted 3 weeks now and with only running .45 bar you know that dumptube is constantly in use

you can buy it at hardware stores that have metal. or you can go to you rlocal metal recycler or something and they should have some.

the 45 degree cut helps cuz as air passes it itll " SUCtion" the air out of the tube.

u can go to ace hardware, home depot, whichever and jus tlook in the hardware aisle and tehres usually tubing and blank metal etcc.
