Does anyone else make these for less $$?

So my car is pretty much done now as far as assembly goes. I finished up the power pipe install last night which involves R&R of the passenger side fender liner. I just need to add fluids and install my battery and battery connections and I'll be ready to plug in the computer and begin my sensor calibrations, timing, and initial setup for tuning. Typing this reminds me I need to get gas too. My area is now selling ethanol free premium (91) fuel so I'll get some of that. I'll wait till the weekend to work on start up and idle.

Thanks guys. I'm frickin giddy right now, I can't wait to hear that iconic twin screw whine!Looks great.

FWIW, I run a Tbird Turbo coupe PCV/check valve for $3.
You'll be able to hear it for sure but it doesn't sound like one installed on a Termi. Most of that noise is force inducted after-cooler (which they decided to never make for the Windsor 
).
).
I believe I do not need that type of PCV for my application since that PCV is designed for a pressurized type induction and my inlet will not see boost. Maybe @Noobz347 can verify that. I'm just doing my stock PCV to a sealed air/oil separator then to the inlet.
I think the only difference between the two is the actual size/volume of the PCV. They operate the same but the Turbo Coupe is larger . I don't recall if the grommet was any different.
If you end up collecting too much oil in the catch-can then give it a shot. It may slow it down some.
The important part is keeping oil out of the intake (which you've done).

Thanks for the reminder Sean, I've been meaning to look in to a Go-Pro or equivalent so I can do a build slide show and start up, idle, and cruise video for my car. Anyone have opinions on this? Should I just use my phone and get a video editing app?
Maybe I'll try both. At $50 it's not much of a risk to try an off brand action camera that gets good reviews like this one

@FoxMustangLvr I'm the wrong dude to ask that. I still have an Iphone 4 from 2012 I just take pictures and ask my wife how to post them...... Technology is not my friend.
Ok, so not much happened over the weekend. I am getting too dang busy with other stuff and the Mustang keeps getting ignored. I need a solid few hours of uninterrupted time for tuning or else it's a waste IMO which I did not get. I did get an hour here and there and made only small progress. I finally got all the fluids in the engine but was short on coolant. So I thought I'd move on to syncing my computer with the ECU. Well I turn the key over and.......NOTHING. Dang battery was completely dead. Turns out my battery tender took a dump on me a while ago and I didn't realize it. The lights were on but nothing was happening. So I hooked up my battery charger and went to the store for more coolant while my battery charged. By the time I got back I had enough juice to at least turn the ignition to ON and get my ECU setup. Everything went well with that but I was out of time. I still need to set mechanical timing and check commanded timing etc. The weather is getting real nice later this week and I might take Friday off work so I can be free of my girlfriend and kids and concentrate on my 5.0 only. If I don't do that she offered to come over on Saturday and hang out with my kids while I tune the car. Great girl, right? 
I was at least happy that when I turned my ignition on that the fuel pump primed and turn off, no fuel leaks or anything, however my IAC kept buzzing non-stop. IMO, So far so good. Just need more time.

Get it did!
I will!!! I'm super nervous and excited about beginning tuning. I'm doing a lot of reading on making adjustments and just getting familiar overall with the TS program. I brought my tablet with me to practice making adjustment in the fuel tables so I'm more comfortable when it's go timeGet it did!
This is good info too @a91what , I know you don't really like VE autotune but....
"The best bet is to give it more fuel than it should need under boost and let auto tune lean it out, not start lean and let it richen it up. Lean kills engines, rich doesn't. By all means do not just floor it and expect the VE Live "auto tune" to fix the afr numbers before it goes lean and blows a headgasket or melts a piston because it won't. You have to manually get it safe (rich) and then let it lean it back out. Your AFR target under boost should be 12.0:1 or richer, no leaner than 12.5 (low boost) and no richer than 11.5"
