Catch can question??

[hawk02]

How much "stuff" should a can catch? When I was using the truck once in a while it would have some brownish water/no oil and now that I have been using it daily it has nothing in it, dry, would that be a good thing or is something wrong? I also have the ROE breather on the other valve cover....:dontknow: Thanks gents!!!!!!!!

Prolly was catching condensation in valve covers/breather system. Driving more reduces condensation build up. Ideally you don't wanna see much in three at all but a hard driven engine, boosted apps, and some nitrous engine will toss cylinder pressures up there, in turn making a little blowby caught by catch can. The oil sling from rockers can also end up in the breather lines.

Where is said catch can located? I dont think I've ever seen it let alone checked it.

Mine is from Billet Tech, top notch stuff and it is connected to both valve covers via a T and then to the airbox for a "slight" vacuum. This is where it's setup and how it's connected, these are early pics and does not show the 2nd line connected. As I said at the beginning it had some brown water in it when it was not being driven too much and now a DD it shows nothing last time I checked...

That looks all after market. Do trucks come with a catch can from factory? Would a mopar intake eliminate it?

Yeah the trucks didn't come with catch cans. I'm not sure if a mopar intake eliminate it.

No they don't come with catch cans from the factory. They should though because when you see the crap that you empty out of them you'll wonder how your engine ever ran with that stuff going back into the intake.

Ive had mine on for months and not a drop in it. Not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing :dontknow:

Do any of the vendors here sell the catch can?

This is 1 of 2 cans installed. Both Moroso cans with 2 inlets, AN-6, with dual chambers & element inside.
Direct to valve covers. Both mounted to frame rails with petcocks on em to easily drain.
Earls's hose & AN fittings, from Summit.
The main reason I have these on is to reduce crankcase pressures and also to exit condensation out.
