Default Help w/Mighty Mouse catch can install on LS3

I’ve been trying to find a good diagram or write up on installing the MM mild catch can on my wet sump LS3 with the head mount. Can anyone help me out? I saw a good video on YouTube but he totally relocated the evap solenoid and I really didn’t wanna have to do all of that. Thanks

No need to relocate the evap solenoid (or mess with it at all) ...

Thanks for the diagram. So it is as simple as I was thinking it would be, but reading online it just seemed like there was more to it. And 10-4 on the evap solenoid. Here is the pic of the head mount I was referring to. Also just to be clear, the blue line in the diagram that goes from the valve cover to the air intake is the factory existing line, right? No need to touch it?

Not sure if the blue line from the valve cover to the flex intake coupling is the stock line ... but it is an easy line to run.

I don't have the factory intake setup on my GS (supercharged), so mine is very different than yours.

Promise ... just run lines like I show in that diagram, and you will have no problems at all with your non-supercharged, wet sump, LS3.

And your system will work flawlessly as it should. . . .

Sounds good I appreciate it!
I have an Elite Engineering standard can on it now and I’m still getting too much oil in the intake so hopefully the MM can will do a little better job. Thanks again
