Catch Can for 1,200 miles run.

Went from Montréal to Detroit to Woodward Dream Cruise. Emptied the Elite Catch Can just before the 1,200 miles ride. Here's what it caught for that ride only.

Nice feeling knowing that didn't all get ingested in your engine isn't it!

Best regards,

I put one on my SS and emptied it yesterday and it had very little oil in it over 3,000 miles. about a 1/4 of the first post picture. I wonder do the V6's ingest more oil versus the V8's ?

Yes the V6 does have a more important oil ingestion that the V8.

So much better in the can than gunking up your engine. Congrats!

I also have the Elite catch can. In 3000 miles I usually get about 1/2" of oil in the can.
