ill try not to ramble on here and put you to sleep wiht my response. lol. Yes i relocated the battery to the trunk and the small black box that you can see in my engine bay where the battery used to be, i use as a small junction box. i did not want to rip out all my power wires (to the starter, fuse box, ect...) and have new ones made up to go all the way back to the trunk. so i took off the stock connection (has the fuse for the alt and the starter on it) off the battery and just made an inclosure for it and ran the positive cable from the trunk to my new junction box in my engine bay. saved some time and came out pretty good i think.
yep, that's a catch can i also made with the breather on it. i removed the PCV valve from the back on the valve cover,and then routed that and the breather on the front of the valve cover to the catch can. it works too, dont get very much oil in it (thank god), but i usually drain it every oil change and a ounce or two usually comes out.
i have the buschur U+LICP's and i just had my stock IX BOV powder coated black. the hard pipe that runs from the intake pipe to the BOV i also made myself out of a piece of 316 stainless steel 1/16" wall pipe. I work in a metal fab shop and have full access to it whenever i want. so i spend alot of time making parts if i can to save money, and its kind of cool i think just to be able to say "i made that" also.
i also made the exh mani heat shield on there out of some 316 stainless steel i had laying around.not sure if you have any more questions, but feel free to ask!

what this? everyone is going buschur powered these days. could be because they rule! ahha...but..the spark plug covers...wow looks like everyone likes to be known to have buschur parts on their cars if not sponsored already. i dont even know if they sponsor people!
