I just bought one on ebay for $68 + $13 S/H...same exact 9mm tank you have GReddy P/N 12003506....I plan on mounting in the same location as well. Did you use all 7ft of the 3/8" fuel line or did you have some to spare?

fyi- If you want to save the money on a catch can, just swap the f or y body pcv valve for the 4.8 or 5.3 truck pcv valve.
I did it, it worked perfectly, my oil usage stopped right then and there. Then when the engine was polished I did away with the pcv stuff all together, relocated coils, evap, everthing!
I had a Greddy catch can before the pcv mod and it was ok, but I sold it when I found out that the pcv on the f and y was to blame.

It sucks oil because of the pcv system. Even if you switch to the LS6 valley pcv system it uses the same "pcv valve" as the LS1 cars.
Change the freaking pcv valve to the truck one, (it has a smaller orifice) and your oil problems are done!

Those are the same thing, and look like they send you a bunch of fittings you can use if you want. They are about 1/2 as much as the actual greddy brand. I would probably buy one of those if i had to do it over again.

Do a few searches on ebay, bound to turn somthing up. You can always just go to a hardware store and find the fittings youself. Might be brass, but thats nothing a can of spraypaint wont fix! ..... or you could polish the brass and be like bishop don magic-wan (sp?)!!!111one

$4.02 at the Chevy dealer .. Just get a pair of needle nose plyers and pull the old one out of the rubber holder that surrounds it and then push in the new one no big deal..
