Yes it was very easy no big deal, just have to make sure everything is covered up so no metal shavings get into places

i still did a catch can when i did my LS6 PCV swap. the catch can still does catch a little. I got the revxtreme catch can, which is considered one of the better ones. it actually has the PCV valve built in, so you dont have to do that funky hose cutting like suggested on the ls1howto doc.

if i remember correctly, i got it direct from the vendor.
http://www.revxtreme.com/index.php/rxproductsmenu

i havent been following the development on these lately, but at the time that i got mine, the reviews all pretty much said to get a revxtreme or a saikou michi. many catch cans on the market are literally just a can. the 'good' designs have baffles and whatnot to make sure it is actually separating the liquid from the air.
