Correct again the Greedy is junk,,Air will and does follow the path of least resistance, look how close the holes are.
I ran a tube down into the bottom with some holes drilled into it for ventilation porpoises and it now resides in the Bimmer....

You need to add some sort of way to make the the gas condense so that the oil stays in the catch can. This can be done by stuffing the can with some stainless steel scouring pads or medium to coarse steel wool. I added a short piece of 3/8" pipe on the inside of the catch can on the outlet side going back to the intake so that the hot gases would be forced to flow through the baffling material"

What ever used must hold up too the rigorous effects of heat , oil, moisture and cleaning chemicals used.

A friend of mine on the West Coast is almost done running tests on a one way drainage valve. We are running some different set-up’s with varying boost levels.
Ranging from the stock 6lbs. of the F-150 H.D's,
Too where he and I are at 18lbs. here and he is hitting 21lbs.
Either the one way check valves are too strong or just the opposite.
