I have another Catch Can question. For some reason my catch can is wanting to spray oil everywhere. I changed out the filter already thinking that would be the problem but guess not. Any suggestions? I have had my truck going on a year and still havent seen a single drop in the can. I been thinking about taking it off but didnt know if would mess anything up.:dontknow: PLEASE HELP

Stuff a little steel wool in the bottom of the catch can, See if that works for you.
 
pull your valve covers off and check and see if they removed the baffles in them when they installed the roller rockers you have ,,,if baffles are missing thats why you are spraying oil ,,
 
I will try both. For some reason it seems to be coming out of the filter. Which i dont understand since its on top. Thank you guys However what would happen if i removed it anything bad?

seems i remember a breather hose hooked into the brake booster hose.

i think he had a vacuum gauge on that brake booster line :dontknow:
 
some how i missed seeing that at dyno day or i would have said something bud

#1 take that valve cover breather off oil fill hole,,and take it off catch can ,,that thing is blowing right into your brake booster vacuum line ,,that hose going to brake booster take it off, the one thats rigged up asap ,,dont know why it is like that,,get a normal cap ,,

:dontknow:

the roller rockes will sling a little oil up into that breather ,, i have harland rollers and they dont stand as tall as yours ,and mine will sling it out hole if i leave cap off

you should have one line from left and right valve cover, tee,ed off ,and one line going to catch can, and i would bet money they took your baffles out !

EDIT:

ok after watching video ,,looks like can is right but that breather and line going to booster vacuum line needs to go ,,surprised your not having brake problems
 
Im going to try to understand this lol get confused easily will take more pics when finished

looks like you have a jumper hose going from one valve cover to the other on the back ,,then you have a hose coming off breather that goes to catch can ,,,YES??
