For those of you with a catch can....
Can I get away with putting the supercharger lid back on without a torque wrench? Would I run into any problems if I hand torqued the bolts?

Use a 1/4 inch drive and use german "gutenteight" standard, you'll be fine.

Look on YouTube
Elite 2x catch can install on ZL1 You will see everything Just look Dare And do What I did on mine: super easy You have to remove the lid and unscrew le SC to lift it a couple of inches to access, remove and switch the PCV valve... Then reverse the process |

What did you use to install the aluminum diverter? It looks like a spanner wrench of some sort may be necessary to fit the slots. |

Yes
The gold part needs to be cut 45deg because there is not so much room and it touchs the bottom part of the engine. Like the video on YouTube : Cut it 45deg with a dremel then it works Then dremel is again your friend : I built my own tool to torque (very slightly) the new silver pcv valve. I cut both side of a 19 wrench Then I got my 2 fitting stuff you need I will post a picture tomorrow I’m not home |

here is the tool I built from a 19 wrench
 to remove the OEM PCV I used a long std Square   then to torque slightly the new PCV, I cut at 45deg the gold part and cut 2 extra marks on the silver front with my Dremel just in case something went wrong with the only 2 OEM (now I have 4 to play with...)  that's it, hope it helps... |
