Installed the FBM Catchcan/Battery Tie-down.

Install was complicated by the fact that I have a Vortec and there were parts missing from the FBM kit. I ended up getting it all installed and a trip to Home Depot took care of the missing vacuum line caps. The missing fitting was shipped by FBM a few days later.

Fitment of the kit is quite good. One thing that confuses me is the choice of hardware for attaching the catchcan to the battery tie-down. They sent a countersunk style screw where almost anything else would work better. I'll change that out when I get a chance.

Also, I polished the battery tie-down prior to install just for S&G's.

Notes:
  • A swivel adapter will make getting the PCV off much easier.
  • A 1" open end wrench (AN Wrench) needed for installing the new fitting.
  • The AC Compressor does not have to be removed. You can tap into the line further out without issue.
Pics pending....
