Question Oil catch can install help

After getting my SLP supercharger installed, I can't for the life of me figure out where to connect my catch can. I searched the same location where it was before, but I still can't figure out where it connects. Can anyone help this lost soul? Pics would be nice as well. Thanks

Rear of the drivers side valve cover, you should see a nipple/port that will likely have a line running to the supercharger just behind the throttle body. That will be the line you are putting the catch can in-line with.

So I take it, this is where I need to connect them. Since I have the apex can, does anyone have a good idea of how to connect it? The mount that came with it is too long to fit like what's in the picture. Thanks Iam Broke for letting me use your picture hehe.

I am having the same problem. Where you have the catch can is where I have the Roto fab WW relocation reservoir. Any other ideas as to where the catch can can go?

You can use the ZL1 mounting bracket. That's generally how we'll do it on supercharged applications.

The RX short "L" bracket should work there with most cans....not sure the price though.

I like that you chose Cam Motion for your grind....really some of the best out there for true understanding.

Okay, you could try this mounting. This was the first ZL1 bracket, but we can still get it.

I don't believe so. Their CC has 4 mounting bolts to the can.
