Great work telom01, please put me down for one.

It sound like the mounting will be a clamp style to go around the catch can.

Will do, and I'll PM you payment info.

It's actually going to be a pair of bolts that fasten the can to the mounting bracket. The t-shaped mounting tab on the can prevents a clamp from wrapping around properly. The bracket will have nuts welded on where the bolts go when you mount the can, which will make it easy to remove, and without the hassle of dropping loose nuts.

My kit won't fit on a V12 because the engine, intake duct, and throttle body are all in the way:

Fittings would be different..But you could use the catch can minus the brackets and mount them yourself in place..btw you would need 2 catch cans for a V12, there are 2 PCV's that feed to each air intake tube

as soon as i saw Racer_X's post, i pulled up the diagram to see where the system was since it couldn't have the same layout as a V8. looks like the PCVs are under the intake manifold, is that right? if so, it'd be a lot more work than my setup for the V8!

There are 2 oil air separators in the engine valley area(below intake and fuel rails), both are on there own circuits, they goto there own pcv at back of the head, then a vent from the cam cover goes to this hose, hose then feeds to the intake tube few inches in front of the throttle body..left and right side systems are a mirror image

The group buy organizer is trying to get the wrinkle black available as an option (no cost difference). If this gets approved, I need to know which finish you want! If I don't hear from anyone, I'll have to default to the brushed finish.

I'll be PMing people as well so hopefully everyone will get a chance to respond.

UPDATE: The group buy organizer was able to get the black finish included in the group buy. I've already heard from a couple people about their choice. Unless I hear otherwise, I'll be defaulting to the brushed finish.

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT YET PAID, I NEED PAYMENT BY THE END OF TODAY!
