Catch can did it's job!!
After roughly 75 minutes on track at VIR Saturday, there was approx one Tbsp of oil in the can.

Very cool, custom and unique bracket you have there. Thanks for sharing. I know I have way less now with my fresh rebuild that I used to.

Re: Catch can did it's job!!
The major contributor to the oil in the pcv system in a healthy lt5 is high rpm runs, it pressurizes the cranckcase, the catchcan seperates the oil being blown into the pcv system.

Re: Catch can did it's job!!
You think high rpms does the job you should see what a little boost does. I've blown out the dip-stick several times before adding the catch cans. Yes, two of them...

No cut-away of the can, I don't suppose?
