my DIY catchcan...
well took like 30 min to do. got all the supplys free from homedepot. from a friend. its empy now. i have some steel wool to put inside. whadya think. i was bored. so thats why i did it.
thanx..
the fittings are screwed from outside.. i made the hole as big as the fitting and forced it in there.. so i basically tapped the PVC with the fitting. i put JBweld around the area. about the cleaning.. i dont know really. i just have that drain. it was practically free so i could use it for a while. and just scrap it.

dont know how much the pvc cost. they had extra peices.. so i cut them. the 2 brass hose things cost like 2 bux each.. and the release fitting cost i think 4 bux. i alsready had glue and jb weld.

whats the actual purpose of a catch can is is to keep the environment clean cause i just let the stuff drain strait from the motor but i do have a csi catch can layin around not sure if im gonna use it
man.. the thing is nice.. its all dried and i blew air in it... tight seal. the undercap isnt glued on yet. i ahve about 2 peices of steel wool. should i pack the hell out of it.. or just put it in there so it has some space
good point on the inlet... i was thinking about that. i might make another.
a friend brought up a good point.. if for some reason the pvc starts melting. the vapors are deadly. so ima either mount it no where near heat.. or just not mount it.

So you spent a bunch of time to find all the parts and then to build a ghetto (but functional) one when you could just buy an nhra legal Moroso catch can from summit racing for $26! But hey you did it yourself right?! Good for you.
