How do you like your Elite Engineering catch can? How is the quality of your Elite Engineering catch can? Post your experience with your Elite Engineering catch can? The first thing I noticed is the Elite Engineering catch can installed on my Camaro is top notch quality and a work of art. My Elite Engineering Catch Can was installed correctly by me and never leaked and o ring is a excellent quality gasket. Also the Elite Engineering Catch Can is made in the USA! I will never swap out my Elite Engineering Catch Can in my Camaro thank you again for another quality product Elite Engineering.

Silver Elite Engineering Catch Can

I also have the complete Elite system that I installed on my 2014 Camaro. Initially I did have a minute problem with one of the O ring gaskets being pinched from the factory. Elite was extremely quick to ship me two more, extra just in case. Every time I drain the system I am amazed at what waste it prevented entry into the engine.

Quality is second to none, but again the old adage "you get what you pay for"!

Dual Elite Engineering Catch Cans they are beautiful to say the least.

I got the E2 (single outlet) with clean side separator and a check valve. Easy to install, and it seems to be working as advertised.

I had one for about 7-8 months, looked great and was well made but I only emptied it once and there wasn't much in it. Of course I only put 5k miles on it in that time. I still thought that was odd considering that I have to empty the one in my truck (Billet technology) every oil change and it's usually pretty full. It will be interesting to see how much my Mighty Mouse collects this summer.

If you have a L99 engine converted to LS3, do you get a L99 catch can or a LS3 catch can?

OP, nice looking catch can.

Thanks. I probably should get a catch can, I just haven't. EE is probably who I would go with if I do ever decide to get off my butt and get one though.

I have an Elite Catch can. Works great. Empty it every 3,000 miles. No issues, great engineering. And looks great in the red.

I recommend getting an Elite Engineering Catch Can as soon as you can. My whole intake manifold was contaminated and coated with motor oil because I didn’t run a catch can. I had to clean my intake manifold the last time it was off. I empty my catch can every oil change which is every 3K miles or every 3 months whatever comes first and I always have some contaminated motor oil to pour out of it.

Emptied my Elite catch can today for the 1st time, had around 4 ounces of oil in the can after 4k miles. definitely recommended.

I bought the car with 12k miles and when installing the Bo White throttle body, I looked in the intake and it was glistening with oil everywhere.

These cans definitely work very well, I have the basic $159 model.
