        Looks very nice.
        So this replaces the PCV in the front valve cover, eh?
        How did you mount the catch can?
        Does the 90 degree fitting thread into the UIM then? I can't tell from the picture.

          it threads into the back valve cover, i tapped and plugged the intake...


          the catch can is mounted for now with a make shift screw clamp modified and rivited to the motor mount you see closest to it.
          thanks for the interest though, guess you seen the FS add.

          It is cold as shit today how ever sunday peaked at -3 and dropped to -6, i was at it till 9:30, after mixing vodka and AMP nearly killed me, i called it quits and job well done.

            Not going to lie, I am honestly thinking about sending you a set of valve covers to get set up.

              I installed a check valve to keep boost out of the crankcase and routed the rear feed to a tap between the compressor and air filter. So hopefully when the airflow increase in boost, the venturi effect will kick in and provide a slight vacuum in the crankcase.

              But with the swapping of my CXRacing Turbo for a Ball Bearing Turbonetics, I don't want to be adding any oily vapor into the compressor like that.

              So I think I need to go the route you took. All I need is a catch can, I have the -6AN adapters and the hoses. Plus the tools, a nice tap & die set.

                Pipe taps are expensive or hard to *borrow* I will warn you in advance. If you want a canister I can have one made if a few people are in. Other wise its not worth wasting my or anyone else's time

                  I have all the tap's I need in many sizes both metric and standard. Canister I'll make or buy somewhere, I was just commenting. Your pics inspired me to do the same for my build.

                            I look forward to hearing these headers. Definately a unique Monte now.

                              well, you guys tell me....

                              i will note that i have a exhaust leak present, this is a 2.5" exhaust, magnaflow cat, 18" long flowpro resinator. and of course waste spark headers...i could only get it up to 4000rpm and it cuts out.
                              ENJOY!!!
