You know that breather hose that goes from the intake pipe to the valve cover...? I think they just replace that hose with one that has a filter in the middle.

Hi I'm too at the moment installing catchcan. I read a DIY article about the catchcan setup on the back of the Honda B20 block. I have the Honda fittings, but I think they are too heavy to be aluminum. Will there be a problem when the engine heats up end there is heat expansion - both the block and fittings? If they are different alloys? I attached a image of what I have from the local Honda dealer. Second question is about the washers - they really seem to be aluminum (very lightweight) - should I use them as is (only crush them when screwing) or there is need to apply some teflon tape?

The fittings:


The washers:

There's about a million different ways you can go about it

i have a hose from my crancase and valve cover going to a vented can.

but you could also use a vacuum pump.. exhaust slash cut,intake slashcut to pull vacuum in a non vented can etc etc.

The washers:
I would say teflon tape is not needed if you are using the gasket.

And as far as them being 2 different materials and heating up. I would not worry too much about that. The plugs that are in there now are not aluminum either.
