I'm not patient enough to wait for one of our vender's to supply me with a catch can mount, especially when it's always at a location they feel is best. Therefore, for the second time I made my own mount to locate my catch can where I wanted. This time, however, I decided to post up how I did it. :)

First, I went to Lowes and purchased an aluminum strip:

Next; I determined where I wanted the catch can installed. In this case, it was in the passenger side of the engine where the air filter once resided:

Subsequently, I modified the strip to fit the location:

Here's a few photos of the completed job, minus the new fuel lines:

Total cost, $3.95 excluding gas and labor. :D

I'm sure this will give the vortech guys a good option and write up as to take care of their catch cans.

Good idea Ant and solid pictures for others to follow. :)

Thanks. I just like to make you all aware, that you are capable of doing these types of things yourselves. :)
