Default Catch Can questions
OK, the Z is gone, but I kept the catch can. I want to install it on my '68 Firebird. I presume the upper hose goes to manifold vacuum and the bottom hose to my PCV valve? I'm guessing the flow goes from the top hose and then out the bottom.

Any problems using a 'can on an older engine? Thanks!

No, more like maybe no one knows whether it's a good idea on a '68 motor. This is a C5/Z06 forum...
