I found it was cheaper to order all the hoses and connections from Earl's. www.anplumbing.com

I will be contacting Stefs to get a can here in the next couple days.

I love this thread. Can we get an update with the best parts list that works for you guys? I'm really picky about what my underhood appearance will be.. only want to do this once, so I'm trying to see the best looks and functionality. =)

many of us went with modaddicts original
recommendation for parts, with the morosso
piece being an optional substitute for the can.

there are many variations of the setup and
haney motorsports has since come out with
a nice kit as well.

i just drained my stef's can the other day and
it's still working fine.

I want the same thing... something functional and that looks good under the hood as well. I have been holding out for the one from Haney Motorsport... but the the black has been on back order for months! I really like their Saleen set-up as it uses the stock fittings for attaching to the valve cover and supercharger. But for $75, think I will make up the same thing using my left over stock hose along with some Earl's Pro-lite hose

I still cringe when I have to mess with braided steel lines. I can remember about 15 bleeding pinholes in my fingertips when I installed the moroso can...

I went on a hay day this past weekend with Earls with the following part numbers:

3 X AT981810 Tube Nut

AT982209 Ano-Tuff 90 DEG. Elbow

AT981611 Ano-Tuff. Straight

AT809010 "Black"Hard anodized 90Deg.

And a Stefs catch can/breather tank like so:

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/STF-5110/

I'm going to order some of Earls line later, but want to run some cheap rubber hose first so I have a more exact amount to order. Should safe on money and head aches.

This set up actually replaces the PCV bungs on the valve covers with fittings a little bit larger than their sizes (so I can drill them out) and a -10 AN hose fitting on the other end. Lines will come off both valve covers to the firewall and a T fitting into the breather tank. Should make it where I don't have any oil mess to clean up!
