Default Halltech Killer Bee Install ?

I just installed the Killer Bee on my 08 LS3 Vette and I was wondering if anyone else with this CAI has had any issues with the way the PCV reconnects to the CAI

Default No Issues

I have had one installed for about a year on my 2007 with no problems.

Nope...no problem here. Installed mine two weeks ago on the new 09. Total no-brainer. What seems to be the issue?

It was easy to install but the hole for the PCV valve does't line up it's at an angle now. Check this link out it's from there web site, I just thought for that kind of money it would line up just as it was on the stock one.

I didn't have my OEM setup on long enough to remember what it looked like but here is a picture of my car with the Killer Bee/Beehive install. The PCV fitting plugged right in. Does your install look the same?

Thanks for the PIC, I went out and took another look at it I pulled the fuel rail cover and was able to re-route the PVC line and now it fits like it is supposed to, maybe the line was not routed properly from the factory who knows it's all good now.

i just rotated the coupling a few degrees to where it doesn't touch the metal housing maybe to 11 o'clock looking from the front.

I have an 08 and my Halltech Killer Bee install looks like the picture on their web site. The PCV valve is positioned about 1/4 inch more forward than stock, but the rubber nipple will adjust as needed. The Halltech intake is a quality product and installs in 15 min. Also, if needed, it can be reverted back to stock in the same time. Next mod will be the Beehive shroud.
