Special Boy,

I have neer seen it, it fits inline? Damn that would be much cleaner... I am just making a mounting bracket and have metal filings launching into my face... the Home Depot sounds a better option!

Why would anyone buy anythng else?????????????????????????????????
Yes! I have been using a Home Depot compressed air dryer for a year. It catches everything. Do a search and you'll find pictures etc. You might find prettier looking cans but nothing will work as good. I am shocked at the amount of **** that fills the bowl in a months worth of driving.

We ARE NOT BULLSHTTNG...Thing works beautifully! I paid $34, plus a couple bucks in the plumbing department for 2 3/8 pipe thread- 5/8 hose barb fittings. Already had teflon tape
I look through the glass and open the petcock to drain - less than 10 seconds
The black finish and cast flow arrow are such that it really looks like a Porsche part

Ok, I just whipped up a bracket, a little rough but you get the idea, I will make it look pretty later. Fits in there perfectly. I will dump the oversized braided line tomorrow and get some black hose to run from the manifold and to the intake. Looks very clean and sweet...

NZ - do you think it would be better if it was red with a yellow stripe?

Obviously Tool. I bought a couple of cans of VHT earlier today, I think two cans is enough.
