Re: Tony D's Project corner (Oil catch cans) Part 2
Thanks for the info Tony..
I have one catch can.. top is intake vaccuum, bottom goes to the PCV valves which come from the IH so mine is similar but our PCV are in different locations in the path.. not sure it will make a big difference where those are though

Re: Tony D's Project corner (Oil catch cans) Part 2
So you HAVE integrated the catch cans in vacuum 'series' with the PCV?

No difference before or after as long as it is in the path.

We all know it doesn't work to well. At WOT there is no vacuum present on the crankcase, the pressure then builds and oily mist start leaving the IH. Having a oil catch cans helps in capturing this oily mist and prevents it from being ingested into the intake.
