    Which piece? Is the plastic reservoir (behind to the right of the catch can) what you're referring to?

    About 120 for universal baffled catch can. Comes with everything except hoses. I didn't use any of the hardware they provided because I ended converting hose and fittings to -8 AN. Bit overkill, but I'll never have to worry about the hose collapsing, etc. Plus it looks cool and factory in all black configuration.

    A update on the silicone hose:

    A few weeks back I noticed a very small film of Oil on the hose at the PCV connection. When installing my Catch Can I replaced the PCV valve, so I checked that it was tight. It was and the hose clamp was also tight. Puzzled where the oil was coming from and after getting @Torspd opinion I changed out just that Hose with a 5/16" id 400 psi transmission Oil cooler Hose from Napa - Part# NBH H 1936. I also changed the input fitting on the Catch Can to 5/16" 90% Hose Barb. So far there's no sign of oil on the hose. I only did this because of the oil on the old hose. Other wise the truck performed well.

    So I got the cheaper version of that ADD one. Very very nice compared to the really junk one I had prior. Mounted it off the intake on a light bar mount lol

    Perfect! Looks like you have easy access to undo and empty the can, and looks stable as well! Kudos

    Yep comes right off!

    I had a threaded hole in my intake, unlike this pic JD took. You can see the round hole 2" up and right of the big silver bolt. Mine has a threaded brass insert in it so I just stuck a M6x1.00 in it to hold the light bar leg.

    I dump mine into the used oil and just rinse it out with isopropyl alcohol. No problems yet.

    Mine is VMS as below so I can't take it apart to clean.

    :anonymous: Dumped some gas in canister to clean filter media. Now it's just air drying over night not sure if this will set of codes or not. Before I reinstall it tomorrow I'll hit it with a flame to burn off any vapors just to see if I can really F something up.

    Just dump it out and reinstall. No reason to do any real cleaning unless 1. It has some sort of filtering material inside, and 2. Its noticeably gunked up.
