I hope so. Car sees a lot of high rpm driving. Drove around now for around 100 miles and catch can is bone dry.

Just wanted to post an updated picture of the catch can at work.

We cruised down to Somerset, KY for the powercruise which was about a 350 mile round trip, a portion of which had some uhh, spirited street driving. The catch can was bone dry prior to the cruise. This is a photo of the catch can later that night.

Mine is on the way Down Under. Probably just off Fiji by now.
10 reasons for buying a Camaro can for a Grange:
1: Will still mount.
2: I do like the construction look of the mounting bracket.
3: Additional outlet port for when the blower comes.
4: Matt black instead of bling.
5: Larger than nearest competition yet more compact than some.
6: More "working volume" compared to competition = theoretically more efficient oil vapour condensation and greater "catch" volumes.
7: Mad amount of positive feedback.
8: Affordable shipping rates - still cheaper to my door than me getting an Elite from down the road - go figure huh.
9: Exceptional customer service - quick, helpful and friendly.
and finally....
10: None of my mates have one

........yet.....

That is awesome! Be sure to post lots of pictures after you get it installed. And send all your jealous mates our way.

Thank you. We just finalize a bracket for the LFX equipped Camaro but I have not had a chance to test it on one with the LLT.

Add me to the list of catchcan orders.

Next step would be to get the upper induction cleaned to offset the 40k+ miles already driven without it...

Update to my initial install:

I stopped by Apex today and picked up some braided hose with the natural finish w/clear coat fittings. I opted to keep the elbow fittings as the black finish. These were very easy to change out and Apex is now supplying the screw type of clamps instead of the tension type.

Here's some pictures, though I didn't take any of the new clamps.
