Default Oil Catch Can Installed

I decided to have a catch can installed. My shop (SNL Performance) had one laying around so I pulled the trigger. Its made by Billet Prototypes and looks pretty cool. I'll let you all know how much oil it catches when I open it up later.

Looks nice and you'll appreciate how much oil it collects! I made one for my GTO and used it only for a few months, but it was amazing the benefit. IMO, this is something that the manufacturer's should incorporate, but between the money (if it's not 'needed') and many owners being oblivious to keeping an eye on it, won't hold my breath, ha ha. Then again, I do like the idea of niche markets and the creativity, so maybe not.

Anyhow, this reminds me to get on the ball for mine

It'd be great to see those catch cans come from the factory with a line for recirculation.
