the check valves on the RX cans are located in the top of the can. You probably received one piece of 3/8 fuel line and it a cut to fit piece. My only problem was getting the fitting that you ordered from Jegs. I ended up getting mine from advance auto for 2.99 . I just wish the "T" fitting on the roto-fab would've had 3/8 on one end and 1/2 on the other.

The install is done! So here's how it all went. Got the wrong bracket, but it didn't matter because I didn't install to the radiator shroud. Instead I used the threaded hole (there are two, I used the one furthest to the left) in the crossbeam below the radiator. Placed the can in the highest bracket position so I have plenty of room underneath to open/close the drain. Also it didn't come with enough hose so I needed an additional two feet of 3/8th and I also had to get a one foot piece of 1/2 inch hose since the Roto Fab "T" is 1/2 inch. Plus a hose connector reducer 1/2 to 3/8th which was another six bucks from JEGs. So like an additional $12 to do the install
Once I had everything I needed, it went in super easy. Probably like 15 minutes. Here's a few pictures, I wanted everything to show as little as possible. Oh, I still need two Black Zip Ties. Had to use white ones, that's all I had on hand, but will replace those ASAP. |

Took my ZL1 in yesterday for its second Oil Change at the dealership. Had my catch can on for 500 miles or so, opened the drain and Not One Drop. NOTHING, Nada, Zip, the drain hose still looks brand new. I was expecting a few drops at least, but nothing came out. Any opinions? Just not enough mileage on her, I know 500 ain't much, but I thought I'd at least get a drop or two or something starting to make its way down the hose??? Oh well, next oil change if I get nothing I'll know Houston We Have A Problem!

I only had a little bit in the can after two drag races. And so far, since I bought my can (over 6000 miles ago), I have not reached 1 oz of oil yet. |

I got less than an ounce, maybe a out 3/4 ounce I figured that's good news 1. It works 😄 2. I'll only need to drain it every oil change |

....a catch can that has three fittings, such as the RX ZL1 product....the center fitting is the engine block oil source <valley>, the outside fittings have the check valves and are the vacuum sources from the intake fitting on the SC and CAI assembly T fitting. Boy I messesd that all up initially. I'll just give up trying to explain stuff....LOL.

I finally received my dual catch can last week that I had AN fittings put on from RX. I have a Roto-Rab intake system on my 2013 ZL1. Is there any photos of anyone has a dual catch can set up with Roto-Fab? I need to know how I hook up the last hose to the intake. I have a dual house bib connector for the vacuum connection from Roto-Fab intake kit. Do I need a special fitting to attach the AN hose to the intake vacuum inlet?
