I looked on your website but it said contact you for pricing on the catch can. How much do they cost for a LS3 manual SS/RS? Will these still mount up with a vararam intake I also plan on getting one in the future.

The Apex cans are currently not available. Our machine shop is backed up with a government contract to catch cans are unfortunately on the back burner for the moment. They will be back up soon.

Moisture/condensation make it look milky. Worse in cold weather.

Great. Thanks so much, I appreciate it!

Could you technically run the line to the can and then the other just to atmosphere? And plug the line at intake?

But the inside of my blower and the intake pan of the blower are full of oil. Little pools of it.

Hey man, clean side catch can or separator will help you a lot as well. Im guessing with a blower, you mat hit WOT more than some? If so the clean side can will help a ton.

When you say, "it ain't doing crap", what exactly do you mean? Is it bone dry or just not catching as much as you expected? What catch can is it?

Caswell239 · 02-20-2015, 10:32 AM

Rx single can. I took maybe 1/8 inch of a red solo cup out of it and my blower and manifold had tons of oil. I'll find a link to my pics as I can no longer upload on tapatalk

Edit: here's some pics in first post, I've cleaned the superxharger snout quite frequently, it usually pools worse then that pic.

There is definitely a lot of oil getting through. Are running anything on the clean side?

Caswell239 · 02-24-2015, 11:25 AM

No, just the catch can.
