Oh ok. For my setup I'm going to run a line from the rear turbo drain block off to the catch can/breather and I'm going to run another line from the filler neck to the catch can. I guess you're only running one line to the catch can.
Makes sense. That way you can out the catch can further forward and have less hose I suppose.

I'll be keeping a close eye on this build. Lots of good info here.

I just wanted to say the build looks amazing. I love the attention to detail and all the little extra stuff you are doing. Those rotors look great by the way.

To put it simple, it's like a BP on the rotors themselves.

Are these the stock brakes? I was under the assumption you should never split them apart?

Yes it's the stock brake calipers & yes you can split them apart as long as you replace all seals.

It's a manual rack & the gearing is easy on the arms .

I was in CLR on Wednesday and saw him working on two different 13B motors..
Maybe one was yours...

I like his shop setup.. air conditioning in the entire shop and a few 4 rotor engine projects to come..
