Oil Catch Can Install
Installed Brian's (NOT-MEE) catch can today. It was a simple install using his latest illustrated online instructions. All I can say is it's a great looking unit and a heck on a deal for the money.

I turned the inlets as Brian pointed out in his post. Much neater.

It does just what it says. It installs in the PVC line to the Throttle Body and collects the condensed oil vapor that would have collected in your intake manifold. Definitely a requirement if you have a modified engine and do any high performance driving.
For where to buy, go to C5 Parts For Sale and look for "Oil Catch Can for $65.00".

is there steel wool or some type of vapor catch already in the cc?
