What's the can mount to? Trying to figure out if it'd work for me since my fuel pressure regulator is mounted pretty close to there
There is a factory tab on the strut tower that has a hole in it. hardware attaches through it. If you look in the picture in my earlier post you can see I ran bolt from bottom up and the nut is visible on the end of the catch can bracket. It is a bit pricey but works great.

My regulator will be on that area as well. But holy sheet! 300 bucks!

Theres gotta be other options out there.
Just need someone with some spare time to google "homemade oil catch can" and then make us a shopping list.

I know a local guy that normally works on GMs but has put catch cans setups together for me. Will hit him up when Procharger in on.

Thanks for clarifying! That's exactly the tab I mounted my regulator on :(

I have the remote mounted pass side can. I don't see any reason those hoses won't reach?

Hey, if that works out for you, can you send me the list of parts it takes. Half joking, but not really. Looks like it should only take about $30-$40 in hoses and parts.

You are correct. Looks to be less than $50 in parts and doesn't look like any heavy fabrication needed for this part. But 300 is almost as much as my fabricated air inlet tube Boostworks made me which was well worth it.

Google searched and this was one of many. Kinda LOL, but kinda not. I know next to nothing about catch cans, but will eventually, so I don't even know if this one would work, can only guess yes. Guessing the big size is for big 4x4 guys that bounce around on rocks more.
Under $15.

Hey, can someone comment on that diagram. I'm going ProCharger also and see reference in the diagram to the clean side getting blocked off. What's that about?

Circled in pic. Its where your clean line connected when NA. need to plug closed so you dont have a boost leak. I used a piece of hose with a plug in it. When i first got car running I was having issues...blew the hose off two times from going into boost. Gotta tighten everything down on boost applications twice as hard.

Hey, thanks man for the info. I'm all new to this. I was going through my ProCharger kit making sure I have everything the other night. I remember seeing a plug and wondering what it was for. Thanks again for the explaination.

Are you sure that wasn't the firewall plug for removing the sound (air) tube?
