Oil Catch Can

I have an V8 L99 engine. Planning to install an oil catch can and was wondering what brand others recommend.

I installed the Elite, easy to install and is working great at catching oil.

I have the JamesBiz billet aluminum oil catch can, but he doesnt make them anymore. My other top choice was the Elite Engineering one.

Just installed my RX on Saturday. It can be tricky with the L99, especially if you get the braided lines. Tracy at RX replied to my pm's and got me straightened out. It's working fine. Definitely recommend that one. Won't be disappointed either way you go OP. Good luck!

Thanks for all the responses! Rx seems to be pretty popular and I like that there is a support person just in case.
