Default Another Catch Can Questions

Newly boosted here and running into some blow by issues. My setup up isn't anything crazy. 5.3 basic upgrades and looking to top out around 15-18psi. My questions lie in which catch can setup to run. I feel a dual catch can setup is over kill for this setup. Thinking of running a Mighty Mouse can strictly because I've heard nothing but good things about them. But also saw trick has come out with some new cans recently and wanted to see if anyone had any input on these. Also, looking to complete ditch PCV system and vent to atmosphere.

Thanks
- Kyle

Venting to atmosphere we can do that.
Our -10 fittings are almost ready as well
So we can set the can up with3/8 line or AN fittings.

If I can help let me know.

The Trick cans are very nice! Just picked one up last week when installed it looks factory.

Once trick comes out with his -10 vent to atmosphere set up, that would be the way to go in my book with a forced induction deal.

Forget the check valve and routing it back into the intake and you will be good for many miles to come.

I used a plastic moroso breather can thing with ports to both valve covers, works perfectly and was like $40 for the can.

They are suppose to be at the plater's Wednesday. Hope to have them next week.
We could make a composite unit just not happy with the over all look, but if that is something the Truck Market would handle, we would do the tooling on them and get them done.

Please excuse my setup not being on a truck, but I use two right side valve covers with billet 10an to oil cap adapters and a 10an line from each cover to a vented Moroso can filled with coarse steel wool.

Does anyone run a closed crank case ventilation setup? Not venting through a filter to the atmosphere but using vacuum from the intake?

Thats a bad idea on a FI build where you have a lot of crankcase blow by to deal with and the risk of ingesting oil is much higher than a stock build.
