Catch can for ZL1
Searched and could not find an exact answer. Do I need a catch can with the 3 lines for the ZL1 (one in and 2 exit ports)? Here is one I am considering:
http://www.eliteengineeringusa.com/e2-catch-can/ If I need a can like this that has the 3 hoses, could someone please point to install instructions for this? Would anyone recommend any of the options on this can such as a special valve? |

I have the cheap two port one from elite. It's good for me. Contact JDP Motorsports they gave me lots of great advice when I bought mine for the zl1.
You'll be surprised how much it grabs.

So the 2 port works for the ZL1? No need for a third port for the supercharger?

2 Port is all you need.

That is correct, however a dual valve (3 port) is better. Add to that a Clean side separator and now your covered!
Here is directions to install: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=424020 Your mounting may be different but the hook ups are the same.

If not running hard (WOT) then you can use the E2 or E2-X single valve (two fitting). If you run hard the dual valve is best as it gives added evacuation ability when needed the most at high boost. The LSA has it;s own cleanside separator, but it cannot be emptied and is only a empty plastic canister. Add the Elite cleanside for a better solution.

Anyone know what's the reason for the clean side canister? If it can't be emptied it will empty itself once it's full just like a direct fitted tube would.
Just curious and always wondered. Doesn't make sense to me, but I guess GM has a reason and would cut the costs of they could this easy.
