Default Write-Up: Monster 2 Catch Can for Boosted Centri! (Pics)

First and foremost I am going to cover the rubber line with this Black Nylon Sleeving Mesh from "Grainger", made specifically for tubes like this: This is the size and part number for our -8 AN (1/2" inner Dia.)

https://www.grainger.com/Grainger/ww...peaheadSearch=

Secondly here is my write-up on the Braille battery install and yes we have "R" Right side positive terminal -
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-t...ll-w-pics.html

Battery Den and Battery Tray Trimmed -




Holes drilled towards front for the tubing to go to the Manifold Neck and Supercharger -


One Hole toward the fire wall going to the Drivers side Valve Cover from Center of Catch Can -




Supercharger -8 AN Bulkhead fitting hogged out a little extra for best volume and the -8 AN 45* Barbed Hose fitting to go to the Catch Can








Valve Cover -8 AN fitting welded on and the 90* Barbed hose fitting to go to the back side of Catch Can








Catch Can Location and Height








Tools I used 2 1/2" hole saw to cut of corner of battery tray and Uni-bit to make front Double/Stacked Hole and Rear/Firewall hole in the battery den wall




I hope this helps and as I said I will make a full write-up with these and more pictures, including the tubes being ran and routed correctly!

I will be able to retain my coil covers and everything else with little intrusion to the engine bay!

I am hoping, if all works out fine, to take it to work and take a couple of hours off and go over to finish the Dyno tuning on it - that should be sufficient enough to pull it and check it -

I did dot run a tube down for now - that might come later - I can "EASILY" unhook the C/C and lift it out and do it on the bench as opposed to getting under the Vette to drain it out.

Here are a few more pics of the finished up install:

To the Drivers Valve Cover:













The other two hooked up, one to the Supercharger w/check-valve the other to the intake manifold w/check-valve









Supercharger Connection:



One going to Supercharger and the other Branching off to the manifold:



At the Manifold:



With all the Covers Back On:











Thanks,Matt
