No diagram needed. It's just plmbed in between the valve cover and the intake manifold.

Its easy. I have mine in the front of my bay. Save the stock valve cover elbows also. Make sure you hook up the passenger side to the can also because thats where you will get 90% of your blowby. My driverside line is still dry and i do lots of HWY speeding.

Not hard to do. Just run a line from the valve cover to the can. Then run one from the can to wherever the kit tells you to run the hose to.

As far as hardware you can get the same stuff as listed in that post but you might need more or less hose depending on your mounting location.

Honestly I never had much oil moving through, but I figured it was cheap insurance.

Easy job.
