Exclamation Remember to check your catch can

Just a friendly reminder to check and/or empty your catch can!

Emptied somebodies Elite Engineering catch can today. It was completely full, and quite disgusting.
This Camaro is a daily driver with about 60k miles, and the catch can was emptied at the last oil change.

If you don't have one yet, do your really want this crap to go through your intake manifold, heads, and combustion chambers?

Feel free to call, email, or PM us anytime!

I've said it once and I'll say it again. So much better in the can than in your engine.
