Re: Ready for the oil catch can...
I know this thread is a bit old, just wanted to hear if anyone has updated info on results (oil collected over time), benefits/problems, new products, etc.
How about use on 93-95s? Thanks, Paul

I just got mine installed last April, I check mine about every third or four time I take the car out, I have been getting 2-3 tablespoons of oil everytime I empty it. Not sure of any benefits other that keeping that oil out of the plenum. Rich

Re: Ready for the oil catch can...
Got a noob question. I have a 90', and when I took the air intake off, I noticed a little bit of oil in the plenum. Is that normal? I know the reason you add an oil catch can is to stop that. But, I don't see a "factory" oil catch can. Why didn't GM put one in. Did they design the engine knowing it was going to suck in some oil and it would just burn off?

Re: Ready for the oil catch can...
I was wondering the same thing. I have a oil catch can that the previous owner installed and it does a great job but why didn't GM install one if it's such a big problem?

Re: Ready for the oil catch can...
Gezzz what a beautiful color for the LT5 !
