Valve cover to run to a catch can setup. That's the issue...the threading for the valve cover is a little odd, I'll attach a pic. Fathouse DID carry a -12 but looks like they no longer do.What is the fitting -12 is just the size?

If it’s a gen 3 you only need (1) the passenger side. Looks like the driver side is fixed/molded as part of the valve cover.Youre the man, UPR it is. Thank you!
FatHouse sent me set with catchcan setup. They self threaded.... was niceFatHouse Fab and UPR both make them in -12.
Aha I saw that opening FB right before this thread. They do a solid setup man, good to know they're open to needs. Honestly kind of wish I went that route; I'm going to have to modify the fittings in the can that I have as well.FatHouse sent me set with catchcan setup. They self threaded.... was nice
I went with a -12 because the ones I had on was too small. When they are too small it can create more back pressure and cause a massive amount of oil to end up in your catch can. It's all about the ventilation into the atmosphere also. Your vents need to be bigger on higher HP cars.What kind of setup are you running that needs -12? A setup with -10 is normally more than enough. If you are getting so much blow-by that you need -12 you might want to look into it
Ok maybe you know more about his setup. Maybe he is running a high power setup. If I ran a high power setup I would run a smog pump setup to pull air out of the crank caseI went with a -12 because the ones I had on was too small.

-12 is nice because you never have to worry about it again and how it fits right into valve covers. If he is doing it, no reason not to go -12.
