My catch can routing ok?
Just a question.You can get a dual catch can for both the clean and dirty side PCV but if your running a single can on the dirty side (which is most important) but aren't you still coating your Intake with oil (but nearly as bad) if not running a catch can on clean side as well.Wouldn't it be best to say go with a dual catch can or go home?

Most, if not all of the oil is from the dirty side. I've never had any oil issues through the clean side, but I do run 2 catch-cans on the dirty side just to keep the oil vapor deposits to a minimum.
Thats what I would imagine but I read somewhere where someone had a dual catchcan setup up.1 for dirty side and 1 for clean and by the time the dirty side was full he caught like almost 1/4 full on clean side.
Can anyone running that setup chime in?

I have a 383 stroker with ls6 intake/tb H/C/I what set up would you guys suggest? Just a standard 1 can set up? It is my DD and i never really go to the track maybe once a year. What size and how much hose would I need?

im running the setup shown in the picture but with both passenger side valve cover ports capped off, would it be better to run the front port uncapped until i can get a hose to run from the throttle body to that port?
thanks in advance

I just skimmed threw all 24 pages and tried to make since for my setup but fail to grasp it 100% I know this has been covered 100,000x's, i know! and I'm sorry, but...
i have a 2002 camaro, just want to make sure i get this correct b/c it has a fresh motor collecting oil in the intake manifold. anyway i have a
ls6 valley cover
ls3 intake
my edelbrock TB doesn't have any hose port connections
passenger valve cover has a breather in place of oil fill cap.
drivers VC has no port for hose connection, must have been swapped out during the engine swap.
I have seen many suggestions for good catch cans, now i just need someone to properly spec out weather if I need a single or dual and how to route the hoses. thanks a bunch.

I think the Norris can is the most reasonably priced can. The Rev xtreme and the "Shidokia" can are probably better due to them being a dual can setup but they are more expensive.
