Thumbs up Norris catch can installed with pics...

Got it today and voted for the silver. Blends in and looks pretty damn good.


I had to cut some of my hard line (plastic) pcv pipe back. Fit together nice with a 90 bend on top.



I used teflon tape to seal all the threads.
Used an old torque converter bolt and 2 washers (so bolt would not bottom out)for the bracket.
I chose to install the pcv valve after the can. I figure it will keep the valve clean and let the can do most of the job. After all, thats what the can is for.
I also installed the can lower than the pcv valve. It makes just a little pitch that may help keeping oil in the can.
It fit great and I like it

Your car ever have the famous pinging? My new motor started pinging around 1200 miles, found gobs of oil in the intake. Sea foam cleaned it up at wot, but I still get a little when cruising at low rpms and heavy throttle.

Looks good. I ended up doing the compressor filter inline with the pcv. Working good so far, but doesn't look this nice lol.

Not that I can tell but this will def help with any oil buildup.

I was thinking on doing that too but I liked how the bracket and everything came as one package. Thanks.
