    Or you could just use one of these from ebay. I got one and used different hose and it works fine. I also had to make sure it was sealed. Mine was $16 shipped so it went up a bit.

    Thanks for the info!
    I also put little rubber nipple on to be double sure...

    Here are a few pictures I just snapped. I ended up taking apart the bottom part of the bowl so I could seal it real well.

    Here's an overall shot of my motor, the catch can is on the right side.


    A closer shot of the can and 3/8'' lines used. My cai is coming today, that's why I didn't try real hard to hide the hose. I'll re-run it when I get my roto-fab installed.

    It does sit upright, I was just holding it so I could photograph it.

    Where is the hose towards the front of the car connected? I can't tell. The back hose is in the right place but not sure about the front.
