Can I just remove this?? Do I need to plug off the pipe coming off the block or put a filter on it or what do I do with that?? The factory can won't fit with my aftermarket manifold and I need to know what to do with that pipe.

Thanks...............

yes remove the can...it will now pretty much look the exact same just no catch can. this means run your front hose to your intake (do not cap that off)

Just remove that container and run hose from cover to intake. I believe if you have an aftermarket intake that doesn't have that extra hole you can just put a breather filter on it too.

You will get oil running into the IC Piping if you dont run a catch can. Just find a way to remount the stock one back near the Brake Cylinder.

I do have a catch can on the intake hose, but what do I do about the pipe on the block?? Block it off, or leave it open??

im kind of confused at what you are saying...so you have a catch can on the hose running from the intake pipe am i right? but no hose running from the back of the catch can down to the block? you should have a hose running to both places do not block anything off or leave anything open

one hose goes from the valve cover to the catch can to the intake. The other side of the "T" goes to the stck catch can that no longer fits. I have the "T" blocked off, but what about the pipe in the block??? Open or blocked off??

dont block anything off or run anything to the open atmosphere. It's simple...you are pretty much going to have the same exact setup as before just this time an aftermarket catch can. Take a hose and run it from the other side of the T down to where its supposed to go. The only thing you are eliminating is the factory catch can.
