Or,,, you could relocate the catch can to a spot in front of the radiator.
Theory has it that the cooler the catch can is the better it will work. I believe your only issue is making sure the lines to the catch can from the engine don't travel uphill. Going back to the engine it doesn't matter.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong....

Thanks everyone it was easy once I had everything together. All I needed was a small spacer the size of the bracket to do the lower nut and bolt on the cover. I need to find a 45* or a 90* fitting for the one that returns to the throttle body. I guess an auto store or Lowe's?????
Note slight kink in hose....Once I get the fitting I'll do braided hoses.
