I'm gonna install one on my svt. But i can't seem to find any for our cars except a bunch of universal ones. Are they all the same? Or are there specific brands i should stay with? Thx.
 
Build your own. Take a look at this one for ideas. I found this to be one of the more robust designs out there.


Place it after the PCV before the inlet pipe.

Think I'll get one as well. I've got two questions. I recently did a thorough cleaning of my UIM & LIM new gaskets the whole 9. After the job I found out I could've installed this to try & keep it from getting caked with oil again.

Q1: Would it be in the best interest to do another cleaning before installing this?

Q2: Anyone have a good picture of the placement of the OCC ?

1- Depends on how long ago you did the last cleaning. If within a year, i'd say just do a seafoam run-through & install the catchcan.
2- Here's a link; http://www.talkford.com/topic/146051-oil-catch-tank-plumbing/page-2
And if still not clear, check this one out; http://www.contour.org/ceg-vb/showt...eparator-in-the-PCV-line.&highlight=catch+can
