Get a catach can, its one of the best things you can do. and its about a 15 minute install. very easy.
if you go to sonic on friday night, there should be a guy names todd there, good guy, and he works for AMW which makes the best one for our cars.

wow, those catch cans are relatively expensive... i dont have that much right now. i may just do the replacement pcv valve n hose assembly from gm parts. its half the price of that amw catch can.
I use the air/water seperator from an air compressor. Its not the best set up, but it works pretty good to say the amount of money thats in it. If your not doing anything today send me a pm and ill let you stop by and see it. I should be home from class by about 5:45-6.

And dirty bird have a look at stangkillers set up. it looks kinda ghetto, but you really can't see it when you have it done, and its pretty cheap.
