OK - someone HAS focused on 'when to empty' the can.

I'm on it.

Anyone got an extra PCV-to-plenum inlet pipe that I can hack? And would Scotch-Brite make for a good filter membrane??? Maybe just a hose by-pass for trial engineering fab-hack... The drain plumbing by default will be tricky here.....................

I'm gonna' get on [something] it here...

Now, if someone would just address the hesitation that Marc said ALL LT5's have; but who will try to write to, or patch the ECM coding?

I guessed at the 10 TBS.....it was less than an inch of oil in the bottom of the Oil Catch Can.......and the Catch Can is maybe 6 inches high.

Chuck, I have a sight glass on the side of my can to check the oil level. I used Scotch Brite stainless steel pads as a filter element. I like the one Xfire is using too. Looks like an air compressor air/oil separator that I use for painting cars. Not too complex and is clear for visual inspection. I will dump any oil into my recycle container.
