I just opened the box that the catch can came in. I have the L99 kit and the mounting bracket now mounts to a pulley.
I thought it mounted to the radiator support bracket.
Looks a little more involved now.

Anyone get the bracket I got ??? Any problems for a rookie to install ?

Sounds like you ordered an Elite catch can rather than an Apex catch can. Until recently we sold those as well. The install is pretty easy regardless of brand.

Emptied about 5,000 miles ago.

Pretty sure the nutrition facts on that bottle are incorrect.

I bought it from you guys about 2-3 weeks ago.
I guess I didn't pay attention when ordering it.
Does the pulley have to come off ? That is my fear with this.

No, and it's not the pulley bolt, it's just a cover bolt. Just remove the bolt and install the bracket, 2 minute job.

Does it matter if one of the hoses sits a little on the valve cover ? Will it melt or damage the hose ?

No, it is fine.

With only 31 miles I would not expect to see anything yet. Our catch can has a very large filtration chamber and a much greater quantity of filtration media than other systems. It tends to hold on to a certain amount of oil vapor before it starts draining into the bottom. Give is another 100-150 miles and you will see it start to accumulate.

I was only kidding
There was only minor trace oil in the old connecting hose,
I think I'll be ok for awhile
