im almost done getting my catch can installed. the question is, the metal gaskets under the manis ... do they get replaced with the cork gaskets? or do the corks go on top of the metal gaskets? i seemed to have deleted robs fone number and cant call!! does anyone have an answer or robs number so i can call?

 

Replace the metal gaskets with the cork ones.

 

awesome thanx!! next question. what is the torque for the mani bolts?

 

are you port matching while you have the mani's off?

 

thought about it jason but the anmount needed to match made me a bit nervous! i decided to get out while the gettin was good and nothing broken!!
can all installed thanx josh for the digits. new grille is in.
let me tell everyone who hasnt seen the inside of the manis mine were covered in oil. the t/b was also caked at the butterfly. i should have done this a long time ago

 

glad to hear it was worthwhile. mine is still sitting in the garage. i definitely need to get around to installing it. report back to us if you notice any difference power or cooling ability. i have a feeling that after this oil/blowby is taken out with the catch can, we may see a little bit cooler temps. just a thought.

 

not sure about cooler temps but i do believe taking the oil out of the air being sent to the t/b should get an extra horse or 2!
only took mne an hour or so to do it josh, like i said in the email routing the hoses was the hardest part. i wanted them to be as straight as possible and also look like they should be there. lots of rearranging went on. in the end worth it!
unlike you guys out west we dont have any cooling issues at all this time of yr. with temps in the 50's during the day and high 30's at nite the s/c is making massive power!! with my tighed supercooler i never have shutdown issues. hoping tony can do the -10 fan mod when i get my tune.

 

You must be talking about the SW. The PNW is cool/cold (and very wet) right now. Any your are correct, the SRT LOVES this cold air. It is scary how quick it will take off right now.....

 

what do they say about folks in the nw? "they dont tan they rust!!" did 18 months in wa. way to much rain for this guy!

 

rob called and gave me all the info i needed . great c/s as always. thanx for all the forum help and to rob for a great product!

 

JTurkel, just remove the t/b...it is an easier install...for the catch can...Rob showed me this, and it was very easy that way...

 

the reason i didnt do it this way was i took the opportunity while the manis were off to clean them the t/b opening and the s/c inlets and get all the old oil off. also even with the t/b off routing them is a challenge to make it look clean. it can be done either way im just a clean freak!

 

Just dont forget to put it back...........

 

yah Rob gave me directions for doing the TB method or the Manifold method. i'll probably just use the prior method though i do have new gaskets in case i go with the manifold method

 

cleaning everything is grt ....I think I have probably burned mine clean by now...
