Got the catch can today. Will most likely install this weekend. Im assuming I should put locktite on the bottom where the drain is too? I was hoping it was some sort of plug there but looks like you unscrew it but want the nut portion to stay in.

Well I prepped the can today with the threadlocker. I did add some to the bottom threads where it enters the can I just didnt add it to the valve threads. Install this weekend should be a snap.

Just got mine today and installed it. I didn't have a suitable bolt so I used a tap and die to add a spot on the side of the alternator bracket. Pretty easy mod, lass than 1/2 hour total for mine. IMG_4770.JPG IMG_4772.JPG

I thought they mounted where that bolt is already there? What size bolt I need to mount it? I didn't get one.

That ground bolt that's already there wouldn't work on mine- the catch can would have hit the power steering pump. No hardware is included with the can- I had a M8 x 1.5 mm tap and a bolt that fit those threads laying around. You might be able to get a nut on the back if your fingers are small enough so you wouldn't need to tap threads. You'll just have to look at yours and improvise.
