Default Elite Engineering Catch Can - A Macro View [Pictures]

UPDATE

Jeff of Elite Engineering sent me one of his awesome catch cans. These units are superbly designed and manufactured, as the macro pictures will show.

An excellent addition to any Corvette

THAT is a nice piece of work.

At the top of the photos I first thought the container was a
drawn, thin-wall item like a vacuum bottle. Then I realized
that it is a machined, thick wall objet d'art.

Look at the threads inside the cap (to hold the separator up
in place). Next time you look at another threaded piece of
aluminum, ask yourself whether they are as well-formed as
these, particularly for being at the bottom of a blind hole.

Thanks for sharing.

Lots of pretenders and lots of "my catch can is the same".

When I saw the E2 (Elite Engineering) catch can, I was blown away with the design, machining and quality. Awesome unit
