Got it figured out. Had a buddy of mine to bring a heat gun cause the wife's hair dryer wasnt cuttin it, wrapped a bit of electrical tape around the fitting and heated it up to conform to the fitting. I made a little relief cut to fit it in like airjor said wrapped a bit more tape and heated it up to seal it up nice. Ill probably go back and use some heat shrink to clean it up a bit. Those worm clamps are a bit of a pain to use, the next size up would be a lot easier to work with, on the can i just used 2 zip ties to hold it for now till i can find some bigger clamps. Did a quick drive around the village and stopped half way to check for leaks and got on it a bit on the way back and so far everything looks good.
Anyone know what that line does that runs right under the can to the throttle body? The engine cover is sitting right on top of the can but if I put it any lower it pushes that line down to much.

Our can uses a two-step outlet filtration system built into the lid itself. On the outlet side of the can there are two small, flat baffles that prevent oil, moisture, and contaminants from being sucked back into the engine. I will try to get a picture of this for you today.

The little pins you saw were the engine cover stud re-locators which are used when you install our intake manifold spacers. They allow you to use the stock engine cover, even with the intake manifold being spaced out.
Looking good! Glad to see you got everything installed! Love the way it looks all tucked up with the engine cover on. I always get freaked out seeing how much more room there is in the engine bay with that 2J cowl intake installed.

Okay I checked my cut factory plastic pipes and they were leaking oil at the joint between at the fitting, probably due to my ham fisted-ness and lack of O-ring that I destroyed. I followed Lessard's path and got some ID 5/8" tubing to replace the factory plastic hoses, took about 15 minutes. Here is the end results.
[MENTION=1045]Boomba Racing[/MENTION] I think you guys should definitely include new ID 5/8" rubber tubes in future kits.
