Question Oil Catch Can?

Who sells the oil catch cans? Not seeing them in any of the listed sponsors to the right here.
I thought I remember two different ones that was talked about in the past.

I got mine from AMW, who is a sponsor at LS1Tech. I heard that the price has almost doubled since I got mine (was $90), but it works great. I would have bought ten of em if I knew the price was gonna go up so much.

Your right on that. They want $160.00 for the kit.
Does it bolt right up? Does the hose connctions work that come with the kit?
How about the mounting bracket? Is it needed or will I have to find my own way to mount it?

The kit pretty much has everything you need, depending on how you want to mount it. The hose connections work fine, they come with those spring/compression type clamps. I believe that they also offer a bracket to mount the can to the head, but a couple of guys have made brackets to mount it to the brake master and booster assembly. I made a bracket with a piece of aluminum that I got from Home Depot and bent into an L shape, measured and drilled a few holes, and mounted it right to the cowl. The can has it's own bracket that slips around it that can be mounted just about anywhere....one guy even mounted his to his electrical center. Here's a pic or two of mine:
