Thinking about picking up a BT catch can for my 2017 5.7 Hemi. What are your guys thoughts on sticking with the PCV hose versus spending a little more for the braided hoses?

I just used the regular hose. But if you want it to look prettier, I guess you can use the braided hose. It'll work the same with either hose. Matter of personal preference.

Yup, all a personal preference. All the hoses do the exact same. Just depends on how you want it to luck.

How much will the engine be on display? How much will the braided lines cost? When I did my catch can I stayed with the rubber hoses as the only time my hood is up is when I'm working on the truck.

Thanks guys, I"ll stick with the regular hoses. Wasn't sure if the braided ones were preferred for any reason other than appearance. Probably be ordering by the end of July.
