I also installed with the return off the side rater then the front side as the instructions say. Looks and functions better IMO.
Looks great!

Mine came with the long screws also. The correct length for the bottom two screws is 10mm. I bought some black oxide socket head cap screws. The black screws look much better. I also used a straight fitting coming off of the center port for the outlet.

I saw someone else recommend Ninja Black Thread Tape for a clean, no white, install. I did that with great result

That is perfect. No need to trim back white tape.

Not that I am aware of but there is a card in the box with a link to our online instructions. They are ridiculously detailed.

It is a very simple install. You should be fine with the online instructions.

Is it necessary to install the little clamps around the braided hoses at the end point where they connect to the "nipples". Seems like the hoses fit pretty snug

No. The clamps are mostly just a warm and fuzzy thing. People would panic if they were not included.

I install my catch can today. My question. Nobody have fear, then the catch can, falls possibly down. For me, looks this very dangerous. You guys take also loctite for the radiator bolt or not?

I think, i need to make my hoses shorter. My looks longer, then all this pictures.

And you guys have installed the clamps on the in and outlet "nipples" on the engine side or not
