Best instructions I've seen for installing it are on Elite Engineering's website. Go to their products and look at their catch can. There is a link there to installing a catch can and the instructions include diagrams of the various systems.
Maybe that will help. Good luck. I'd try to help more but I haven't installed mine yet so I'm still new to the catch can game.

Does this sound right????
This is how I ran my hoses:
Top of catch can to the valley cover.
Bottom of catch can I ran to the intake with the pcv valve allowing the intake to pull air. Does this sound right????
I figure, since the intake sucks in air and the valley cover forces air out, I am trying to keep the oil from the valley out of the intake. I'm sorry, I may be over thinking this.
Am I on the right page here??

If your can is designed like the Elite or AMW then the top line goes to the Valley and the side goes to the airbridge/coupler.
