Default Just got my Saikou Michi Dual catch can, need help.

hey guys,

i just got the Saikou michi dual catch can for LS1, it's a really nice piece.

i have problem trying to figure out how to mount the bracket on the passenger side head.

he only supplies 2 nuts and bolts and washers which were too small for the bolt thread on my head (i have 243 heads) i dont know if the bolt size is different between 241 heads and 243.

if anyone with Saikou michi CC can chime in and help me with the installation i'd appreciate it.

The supplied nuts and bolts are to mount the can to the bracket. You have to get your own bolt to attatch the bracket to the accessory hole in the head. I don't know what size it is off hand though. hth

M10 1.5 threads................mine are almost an inch long not counting the head but they're almost too long, I'd say 3/4" long would be good

right on thanks!

i suppose autozone or local part stores should have it right?

let me get this straight, install the bracket with M10 1.5 threads bolts and bolt the CC with the supplied bolts

Yeah that's how I did mine, I'm running a set of 243's also so I'm sure the holes are the same

How do you like yours by the way and do you have ls1 or ls6 style valley cover?
