did you find the catch can post? its here:

https://www.xbimmers.com/forums/show...ight=catch+can

i did this initial catch can project. you will see in that thread there is talk about a 2nd project and different parts but that never came to fruition. so the inital one is good enough, just doesnt look as appealing as the prototypes.

I see the 3 port catch can is presently out of stock on amazon. The two I have are:

(2) 6AN to 1/8"NPT adapters: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XRZD92P

And here are the optional adapters if you want to install boost gauges

Keep in mind you will need more and different adaptors that what are listed here. I found some adapters needed a 45 degree angle or a 90 degree angle, etc etc.

So you will need to purchase additional pieces and return what you dont need/use.

Make sure you study the photos of hte brass valves as you could possibly install the spring and plunger backwards. You also have the cut the spring about 1/8inch shorter to allow more adjustment, which SR explains in his thread posts. Post here if you have any questions
