Get a catch can before any mods.

I still believe you have these hoses installed backward (although I believe it will still work either way). Air flow will be coming from the valve cover with oil vapour, it should be routed to the fitting on the side of the can, this air and oil vapour will collect in the bottom of the can and be forced to exit through the filter at the top of the can, which will catch these vapours and cause them to condense and drip back down into the can. This now clean filtered air will exit the can through the top 'foam filtered' fitting and into the vacuum of the intake manifold. Anyone else want to comment on this, am I missing something or do I have something wrong?

But the way I think about it is why would you send the oil vapour filled air through the top of the catch can (where vapour will condense and seep through the filter into the bottom of the can) then have the air from the bottom of the can which is in contact with the condensed oil collected in the can to the intake manifold? Don't you guys think this is a less effective vapour filter??

You make valid points. Catchcans.com says to install the way the OP has it. Now I would be curious if there were any testing done to show routing one way is superior to the other?

Does anyone have pictures and instructions on how to properly install the can and the hoses. Thanks.

Here ya go... its simple.

Top hose goes to PCV. AND the hose coming out the side of the can goes to your upper intake breather....

Or you can mount it to the brake booster for shorter lines.

Ain't trying to step on your toes brother. It looks like you have the hydroboost setup so my mounting location won't work for you. I do not have hydroboost and I also have my Big 3 wires in the way to mount it where you did.
