Default Anyone using a AMW catch can on their LT1?

I see the LS1/6 guys using it and swear by it. I know they have more of a oil control issue then most LT1's but was wondering has anyone tried one yet?

If so how do you like it? I'm definetly going to try it out but just wanted some input. My only other question is how do you install it? 2 lines, one for the VC where that line hooks up to the TB but the top line is what I'm confused on. Are they hooking that up to PCV itself? I know on ours the PCV is on the driver side w/ the u shaped rubber hose. So are they closing the port or is their's setup totally different?

Yeah, I guess you are right about that. I figured it out looking at some pics. Top line is the pass side vc the bottom line is to the port on the tb. Ordered it today. Don't do the ebay thing.
