I recently got that EXACT one.

Working on building my own bracket for it though.
Mine is going where my A/C can used to be.
And I bought regular black tubing. Screw using colored clear tubing for oil.

It doesn't replace the PCV valve...it goes inbetween the PCV valve and the throttle body.

I kinda like the blue tubing,,, but it doesn't match the engine bay. I think I might stick with the clear tubing from the home made one that I made. I'll put it in this weekend and post some pics. My home made one caught a lot of crap and this one should do the same but just look a lot better under the hood. I might wait to install though, I'm getting headers and ls6 intake later this summer, so the EGR is going BYE BYE. I'll have plenty of room to put it right next to the belts. It looks much better with a shorter hose then a 4 foot hose going to the passenger headlight. Anyone have any pics of this can???????

I'm not digging the blue tubing. Looks like somebody raided a fish tank.
