Default PCV catch cans...where to buy?

Hello all. I am an ex LS1 owner that's buying another one tomorrow (Monday). When I had my first one I had oil sucking through the PCV problems and at that time people were putting fuel filters in the PCV tubing. I heard now they make catch cans for this for about $80. Can someone direct me to a link as to where to purchase said can? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the site and hope everything goes well with your new LS1. I have an AMW catch can, and highly recommend it. It is a little pricey, but worth every penny. You can read up on some info on them and buy one by clicking on the sponsor list. Look for an "AMW" banner to the right of this screen ---->.

If your car doesn't have an EGR mounted on the passenger side head I would recommend getting there optional mounting bracket also, it's $25 when purchased with there catch can.
