Catch Can

[seguin22]

Ok Heres my situation I know the classic way to install a catch can between the intake manifold and the pcv valve, But im wondering if its possible to install one coming from the valve cover breather and then just put a filter on the other port of the oil catch can, Will this work? Because I have a breather filter on the end of the breather hose and it gets full of oil so I was wonder if a catch can could be installed to catch the oil?? anythoughts

^ yes.

I am going for a dual catch can setup right now.

Ok... Update...

Here you go:

I have both lines (PCV+other valve) going into a catch can, and then venting to the atmosphere. I LOVE IT.

I get more oil in it and less beige crap then before too.

I bought this can from TrickedXD, I have no clue where he got it from.

And there's a small valve on the bottom, makes it SOOOOOOOOOOO much easier to empty, I just did it right now at 1 am while adding some windshield washer fluid

Hehehe

Do you have to empty them out a lot?

Cause I get a lot of stuff, though for some reason my oil level isn't going down...

[clarion]

its probly condensation and other stuff in there...not all oil...when my piston cracked, both my cans where over flowing with oil (filters soaked and everything around them in oil) , that day sucked. havent really gota chance to see the average amount of stuff in the cans, due to my motor blow up and such :redface:

o/t but i started my car up for the first time in along time today and everything run good, got the decomperssion plate in there now
