Default Billet Aluminum PCV Catch Can

I'm looking to buy one ASAP. Can anyone chime in and tell me what's a good brand to roll with? Thanks!

Installed one on my LT1 a few months back. The quality is excellent and really nice piece.

Saikou Michi is the one of the better ones out there. I previously had a rev xtreme, it was a decent enough can, but sold it along with my old car. When I bought the C5Z06 my search for another can started. Revxtreme did not appear to be in the catch can business anymore, or any business for that matter. That is when I ran across the Saikou Michi setup. There are a few good threads on this site with regard to catch-cans and PVC circuit in general. I am currently running his LS1 Dual Kit on the Z06. There are two cans with inlets for the dirty side and clean side.

I also have the dual Saikou Michi unit but I had him reverse the inlet/outlet where the inlet is on the side and the outlet is on the top.

I have a catch can on my '02.

I have yet to see enough oil in that thing to even pour back into the engine.

I guess that is a good thing.

You shouldn't be pouring any of that **** back into the engine. Those blow-by gasses have moisture and other contaminants. The PVC circuit helps the engine rid itself of this mess by running back into the intake tract to be burned/flashed off during combustion, with a catch can you should just dump it in your waste oil container.

What do you fast intake guys do with the fresh air hose off the tb? Could I run a t fitting on the single intake port and run both my valley cover and valve cover to it?
