Hey Tony;
Isn't that where the TURBOS are supposed to go?


PS: GREAT wrap job on the headers! Looks as good
from underneath as from on top.

Yeah maybe on the Turbos, If I were doing Turbos they would be up front behind the radiator. I would use 1985-87 fan shroud and radiator, it gives you more room. And.... thank you.

Yun,do you have any better photos of your catch can set-up?

I really like Cliff's set-up too but our 94 has the ASR to contend with,also. It doesn't have a sight tube either.

Clint,

Let me know which area you want pics of.
Trick is to turn the "F" shaped PCV connector 180 degrees then connect "F" shaped connector to one side of the catch can. The other side of the catch can connects to the driver side PCV aluminum tube (where the "F" shaped connector use to connect to).
I believe I am using 10AN lines but you can use rubber hose if you prefer.

I'm still not sure how/where the lines connect to the engine,Yun.
A-N lines and fittings are the only way,for me.

I'll hand sketch the set up. With all sorts of wire looms, etc..., digital pic may be confusing.

Whats on the inside of the catch can that changes the vapor fluid keep it from going into the plenum? I bought 2 off ebay, used, for $45....These appears to be custom made and came off of a race car or so the story goes...

I don't have pictures of the one on black car, but it is set up with a divided chamber; with the chamber divided horizontally by a grate that holds a filter......a hose runs from the inlet nipple to below the second part of the chamber. the oil vapor then must come up through the filter before exiting the outlet nipple

the one below is even more interesting, the oil must return through a series of baffles to get from the entry nipple to the exit...

Lee,

Those are nearly identical to what I got. As the oil vapor cools it drops out of suspension to the bottom of the can
