Hi Dave, Mine is tucked in at the back between the diff and the fuel tank. There is a hose that goes to the engine. There is a little solenoid on the engine that is switched on and off by the ECU. Its location was on the front passenger side of my engine. Not sure about the LS7 though. I am just running a single fuel line up to the engine. They seem to do this in all prod cars and dont have any heat/evap related issues. Also, I'd recommend using a brake padal light switch rather than the pressure switch Ian uses in the rear line. When I have my bias set to favour the front, the brake light takes a bit more pedal pressure to come on which is a little unnerving in traffic when you use a light foot to brake. Hope your build is going well. I think we'll have to organise a shed run when thet weather fines up. Rgds Gregg

Gregg,
How are you, if you can remember, how does the carbon canister hookup, did you mount down the back (as per Manual), up the front, do i need to run a vacuum line down to the front, i'm putting in the brake and fuel lines and the manual doesn't give any clear indication about any other lines.
Cheers, hope your well
