thx

 

You have to remove the black box and two freeze plugs with a large hex head. The freeze plugs are in there with red loctite so they can be a bitch to get out. You need a block plug like the z10 one in the picture, or you can order a much less expensive one from T1 that works just as well. Check out the official catchcan thread for more info -- too bad all the pics there are broken.

The first pic is just to get you oriented (took it from this f/s thread: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2221283).

 

ok thanks alot man. Now is that the same on the ls block? also what do i do with the hoses that are on teh top of the black box? plug them or let them be? becouse the balck box isnt going back on is it?

 

forgive my ignorance. Is there a good writeup on this?

Or is this an alternative for running a catch can off the valve cover?

There are two lines coming out of the black box that will be removed from the motor with the black box. One goes to the PCV valve in the valve cover, and one goes to the block (location visible in first picture). You can cap off the fitting for the black box hose on the block with a dead ended piece of rubber hose. You'll need to plug the hole in the valve cover with something.

Only diff between ls and gsr is the location of the pcv valve. PCV on ls is in the valve cover.

 

Interesting. subscribed :D

don't wanna be welding anything into my gsr VC either.

 

ok i found the plug i need to use. now will this fitting work? instead of buying the t1 fitting? adn will i need washers with it? http://www.z10eng.com/catalog/...id=41

 

Yes, you will need washers with the fittings. The fitting you posted will work, but if you already have the T1 fittings, you don't need the z10 ones.

For the block plug, you can use any of the following:

Ok yeh i didnt buy the t1 fittings yet,. these are much cheeper so ill probubly get these. So i need two of these the z10 plug and two washers? that is all?

 

If you haven't bought the T1 fittings yet, you might want to consider buying the Honda part with the barb fitting so you don't have to worry about purchasing and fabricating lines. You would be able to just run rubber hoses from auto zone. Much cheaper and much easier.

11107-PK2-003 Honda PN for the fittings (need two)
12207-634-300 Honda PN for the washers (need two)

This is how my hoses look:

 

I tried the 35.xx mm freeze plug from Honda and it wouldn't go in.

If you need something in a pinch, you can get a 34.3mm freeze plug from O'Reilly.

Dorman manufactures them. They're roughly $.59. It may or may not work depending on the size they machined the hole to.

 

we just use the 34.3mm plugs from napa. i like to jb weld mine in though

 

how do you install the freeze plugs? Do you freeze 'em, then hammer 'em into place? and then cover around with a little JB weld for peace of mind?

 

Just got off the phone with honda, theres are the ones wiht the hose fitting ends so i can get the hose cheep form autozone like said above. the item number i got from the link above also. came to 30 shipped with washers for everything. now all i need is the plug. anyone know where i can get the plug cheep? i dont really want to jb weld. Also you guys just used lock tight for the threads right?

 

The freeze plugs are a slight interference fit with the ID of the hole. You can use a socket and preferrably a hammer to install.

I belive the freeze plug gets its name as a fail safe device when the cooling media in the cylinder block freezes and expands, it will expand into the freeze plug cavity and pushes it out to relieve the expansion pressure.

It's not a problem anymore with the anti-freeze in modern usage now.

Also, I used Hondabond HT as an installation lube and secondary seal.

 

i put the jb weld on the outer ring of it where it is going to contact the block, then use a medium sized hammer to install.

 

As far as the plug goes, i wont need to jb weld that it correct? just stays in by its self. Oh and i bought 6ft of hose think that will be enough or should i but a little more?

 

Do I have to plug my PCV valve on my head? I have a B18B motor. Also what about the other port on the head going to my intake pipe?
