Default Catch Can Question

I have an H22 on boost. I have an all star catch can.

Where exactly do I hook it up? Its hard to follow 5 year old tutorials with no pictures.

Is it pcv valve- catch can - intake manifold

or

pcv - catch can - other valve cover nipple

do you have a picture of the can? is there just one line running from it? is it sealed or does it have a filter on top

when installing a catch can you should remove the pcv valve. your catch can chould never be hooked to the intake manifold. the point is to relieve crankcase pressure so it needs to be hooked to the crankcase. either the valve cover or back of the block.

do you know the size of the fittings?

i would weld 2 -10AN bungs to the back of valve cover then run the lines to the can.

why not just use the holes already on the valve cover where the pcv goes?

you could but...

1. you need to find some kinda of fitting or adapter for the pcv hole to a hose fitting. or gut the pcv valve to work as a straight hose barb

2. they are kinda small so you get less venitlation.

h22's have nothing in the back of the block, just hook them up to the valve cover, if you hook it up to the intake manifold you're gonna be boosting into the catch can.

Hey i know this is an old thread, but the same question still applies and feel its unneccesary to create a whole new thread. so anyways, the diagram that i drew... is this one of the ways to make it work? or ami retarded with the catch can proccess lol. sorry never really looked in depth as to when im looking under someones hood. i feel this is the most reasonable In my opinion. atleast it works out in theory.

i plan on being boosted within a few months and was looking at the some catch cans and this dude is selling one that has 2 inlets going into the can some what like this. i just wanna run a catch can without really having to weld stuff and what not (atleast not yet) maybe in the future when i decide i need more power :p lol

thanks in advance!
