Would you prefer this over the crawford AOS? I just dont like the idea of recycling the dirty oil.

Yes. I am running a radium can currently. Need to adjust some of the hoses and maybe change the bracket up but it's working for now. I also would prefer not to recycle blow-by oil.

Single. For the second one would go between the block under the AC compressor and the intake tube.

and the dual one would be the better option if i decided to put an SC later on? or should i do single now and buy the dual later on? im sorry for all the noobish questions. im still new to all these engine bay tinkering.

If you are definitely planning on running two, I'd buy the dual now and save the $50 difference in cost, even if you didn't use both cans right away.

Agreed. if you are for sure doing an SC just bite the bullet and get the dual can up front and save a bit of money. Even if you don't use the second can right away you have it. Just make sure the measure the breather hose ID so you get the correct barb size.

So its OK to keep the 2nd can "unhooked" to the system while i dont have the SC installed yet? Which one is the breather hose, if you dont mind me asking?

Yes you can keep the 2nd can unhooked or leave it off the bracket all together. but if you wanted to hook it up the attached picture is the breather tube.

Sorry for the crap picture

The crappy part is where it connects to on the block

I know! I checked it earlier and it'll be a tight squeeze or i'd have to remove the AC. Sheeesh! Hopefully i dont screw-up on where to connect the hoses to which place. and i wonder if the dual would fit to the strut bar section. coz if i put it to where the OP did, im gonna be running a very long hose from the breather tube to the secondary can, then from the can to the block. my engine bay would look like the back of an office desk.
