Do a search on this forum. "Catch cans" was a pretty lively topic several months ago. Also, if you search google for catch can DIY you'll find some interesting homemade alternatives including one made from PVC pipe and fittings. Good luck!

The Jaz tanks are nice.

Why do you need a catch can anyway? It's not a race car, right? You can just go and root a length of hose.


I think a tiny breather will just do fine.

You could put one of those EGR valves in at an angle in the exhaust and rout it there. That way, vacuume caused by the exhaust would create a slight low psi in the crank case and keeping more oil from the combustion.

I don't have a link for that but I know there has been some discussion on how to do it.

Pedro?

thanks for the suggestion of my work, mine is just one of many options.

You can use....a can of red bull or your favorite soda, ebay catch cans, canton makes a nice one, the jegs one above looks hard to beat too...

It all depends on how much you want to spend and how "clean" (lookswise) of a solution you want.

The only thing that might drive you to get one of mine is that I can custom make any design you want. If you have a certain space that you want it to fill or you want it to look a certain way or have a certain AN fitting welded on it you can. Since I making it from scratch anything is possible. It wont be as cheap as a can of redbull or plastic coke bottle or even a jegs. But you will be proud of it when you open you hood...

and oil blown underneath the floor boards of your car is what I call the italian rust prevention system. it's messy but it better than rust! hehe
