<strong>Sorry so uninformed, but what exactly is that used for?</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Its to help stop the oil consumption problems our cars have. I have the same thing that someone else came up with by using fuel filters.
slick98ta- Looks pretty good. Where is your PCV valve at? Do you have any more pics of it?
Good luck with it I hope it helps.
Peace,
Craig.
What is the made made from?
Why don't both lines run from the top of the can?
How do you empty the can?
Has it worked? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I didn't put both lines on top simply because the way the cap has a square nuckle on top and no room,so its on the side.
I can empty it by taking off the threaded cap off the bottom,or i plan on putting a drain fitting on the bottom.I just did it like that for now cause it was fast fix and i was going to track.
Well I did the can 2 days ago then went straight to the track,it seems to work and i see no oil in the clear hose,but tomorrow i'm going to look behind the TB and check the can to be sure.After running the hell out of it at the track and if there's no oil in the TB i should be doing good,because before after a day of driving normal i was getting oil behind the TB.We'll i'll let you know.

<strong>Oh, is it necessary to take off or modify for this mod or is it just some nice space to have afor a mount?</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah I have a 98' and removed the EGR when i put a LS6 intake on.So in your case you just need a spot to mount it.I chose that spot but it can go anywhere you choose.

<strong>hey slick98ta, was it easy to remove ur egr system, and what did u have to remove or modify.</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">yes it was easy,all of about 10 min.I put a ls6 intake without EGR and made a block off plate for the egr tube that goes to the header.Then had PCM tuning done and deleted the code that gets set off from having no egr.
