Default Couple Of New Goodies For The Engine Bay
I was bored today so I went out and took a couple of quick pics of the new additions to the engine bay. I added a Revxtreme catch can and a manual tensioner. I was having problems with the belt walking and it seems like the new tensioner has solved the problem.

Very clean! Looks good. I'm having the same issue with my serpentine tensioner, I may have to try the same solution.

Looks like it's coming from the rear of the valve cover, and the bottom line goes to the intake.

It's still in the factory spot just covered with stainless or something isn't it?

Yeah one of these tensioners should fix it. It was only $75 on ebay too.

Chevroletfreak- The valvecovers connect into a T fitting in the rear then the line comes up to the can.

RWB-The pcm is in the factory spot it just has a cover on it from Specialized Stainless.

Oh I know it's working. I opened the valve a little the other day thinking nothing would be in there and sure enough some oil came out I had to close it real quick

It's two stages the direct port and the wet kit. The dry one is no longer hooked up. I used it on my previous setup but it looks cool
