Just bought the can & I am really impressed with the quality & workmanship of this product. I would like some suggestions on where and how to install the can. Also like to know how it is working i.e.how much oil are you collecting.

TIA Jerry

There is a guy over at ls1tech.com who makes brackets for the AMW. Do a search and you'll find him, he makes a great product. Won't work if you have EGR though.

I just received mine yesterday and it's a piece of art, very nice if you like machined things.

The AMW comes with a mounting bracket which again is beautiful, so I think the question is where to mount that bracket.

I just got my catch can too, and e-mailed Al about the head brackets, and he said that he sold his last one, and didn't see making any more, unless he got a bunch of new orders.

Opps, sorry guys. It may have been me. I received mine yesterday. I chose the "clear coat" (polished aluminum color) Haven't had time to install yet.
If anyone else is interested, just go to their website. If they show to be out of stock on the one you want, e-mail them. They will get back to you with info on availability.
