Default Catch Can?
At what point would a catch can be needed? On a cammed, LT, TVS 2300 6.0 would it be required for 10lb of boost?

Required? No. I don't have one. I am not convinced.

Yeah, I don't debate it works, not at all. I just debate necessity.

I use one and I like the way it keeps my blower dry and oil free.

Thanks guys. I just didn't want to hold up my install waiting on shipping this time of year.

By the way, Trever - I blame you and your truck for this ADDICTION!

How much trouble would it be to install a catch can after the maggie is installed?

No problem at all. You will just have to reroute your pcv hose through the catch can. Mine is mounted to pass side head, can get u pics if you need them.

Yeah it's not difficult at all, the can just goes inline between the vacuum nipple and the crankcase outlet (typically driver side valve cover).

Stole these from another forum:
