Oil catch can for turbo guys
I have filter on my valve cover to let the crank case breath. It has been spraying little bit oil on top of the valve cover. What kind of oil catch can are you guy using?

I have the STS bypass vent plumbed with clear plastic tubing into a Tropicana clear plastic juice jug Ty-wrapped next to my A/C canister. Pretty ghetto but it works....LOL. I rigged it up after I burnt a piston and I was getting a lot of blow-by. Now with the new engine all I get in it is condensation from the sump.
I tried to find a catch can but they were all overpriced if you ask me. Let me know if you can find a good one at a good price.

I picked up a cheap catch can off of Ebay for $40 and I should have this done this weekend. I will let you know how it works.

capped off a 5" piece of 3" pipe, ran both valve cover vents in near the top, put a drain in the bottom and my old valve cover filter on the top. You'd be suprised how much water gets trapped in there!

model number is in the picture. dont need vaccum to pull pressure out. inducing enough pressure into motor to allow it to vent itself. i have the LS6 VC which is Tee'd with the valve covers to the catch can. no issues at all. copied same design from proven FI setups from over on tech
