Ha! I just bought a PCV made for LS1 trucks. A few people at LS1.com recommend me just buy this part instead of getting a catch can that will add more **** on the engine bay. I compare between the two and it make sense that the truck PCV should do the job preventing oil into the intake manifold.

GM made the truck PCV valve the standard replacement for these cars at least 5 or 6 years ago. I remember reading bout it back then. That didn't help then people started doin the LS6 PCV swap (myself included). No success there either. If your gettin oil in the intake your best bet is a catch can. Good luck with it tho, there's always exceptions to the rule.

I have nitrous solenoids stacked on the passenger side head at the tensioner. I have the AMW as well and plan on getting it tucked down where I can access the petcock through the access doors under the driving lights on my 2000 Camaro. Any photos of this area? Ideas on where to mount the can?

I put mine under the fuses on driver side and had it hanging down to where the air pump is and when its time to drain oil out of it I pull 2 screws out where air pump is and easy accesses!

That is the location mine is going though. Just have to figure out how to mount it.
The dryer bracket was too big for my can, so I had to cut it down.

This question is for anyone. When buying a compressor oil separator is it better to have a unit that is 22 scfm @ 90 psi with .01 micron filtering or a 57 scfm @ 90 psi with 5 micron filtering ability. So either better flow less filtering or less flow and more filtering. Thanks
