Those pics are pretty good! I’m assuming Weapon X fabricated that bracket for you?

Thank for the additional pics!

You may be able to get a bracket from Weapon-X also! I've seen a couple other Z cars with the same bracket.

Hello,

just seen you plan to add a extra reservoir for the compressor, plus your catch can.
Did those 3 mods:
-Elite 2X Catch can,
-ADM extra reservoir
-CAI rotofab dry

1/ start with the ADM reservoir and put it with their own fixation to the aft engine bay
(No choice, and it fits great including hood clearance even if it looks high)

2/ then put your Elite 2X catch can
I had to modify a little bit the 2 fixations they provide me,
look at the picture : you can see some dremel issues in order to clear at the top the second bolt on the bar and mid fixation to clear the AC line in order to put it max on the side away from the engine
Then I decided to run the "in line" in the front of the engine instead of the back in order to clean those 3 lines together...

3/conclusion
it's tight but you can still empty the can without removing it and everything is on the same side.
no issue

Good work Biscuit. Did you consider mounting the Catch Can to the Rotofab shroud?

Yes but aborted because of the AC line.
If you mount it on the rotofab, AC line will run below it and prevent you to empty the can without removing it.
Like that it’s tight, AC line is on the side and you can access below to empty it...
BTW

I hope weapon x jumps in here and lets us know if they can make a bracket to mount to the radiator. I’d hate to have to mount the catch can anywhere near the manifolds, I read somewhere that the excessive heat could have a negative impact on how much oil the catch can traps.

Yes if you guys want it, I can get the PN added to our production list! Shoot me an email and I'll get a follow up list going. I'll have to get with Kevin and get the water jet file to my engineer so we can load it up and cut more.

I am also interested in this!
For me, I just don't want to have to remove the can to change spark plugs.

OK, Weapon-X I would love a radiator bracket mount. Please add me to the list! PM when you get the mount done.

Yep, I’m in. My original EE Can is still in the box because I just don’t like the mounting point in the instructions.
