There are plenty of threads out there already with this info, did you do a search for the words "catch can"?
I run an Elite Catch Can on my 14 2LT. I cannot believe the amount of oil that it has captured since I put it on. To think that it would have gone back into the engine..

I use to run the Elite can but after cam install it feels very restrictive so I switched to a Moroso setup I made that is not restrictive and catches very well. Funny how the Elite can, both lines were moist with oil where as on my Moroso the return tube to the intake manifold is dry.

I just bought one off the member classifieds(Elite Catch Can). Someone was selling 3 so you might be able to grab one if you want a cheaper one than new.

I'm getting ready install a cam here soon. Maybe I'll snag up a moroso

Elite in black anodized finish. Works great, no regrets.

I am not very knowledgeable about cars...yet

So, which is better? Both lines moist, or the Moroso with only one line moist?

Mat help you but none of know who "BrandX" is yet.

Elite and Apex are the two most common for the dirty side. I run a 1LE Clean Side Oil Separator on mine right now and will do a dirty side can later.

Some have also made their own, but results can be hit or miss.

Mighty Mouse has the best lsx catch can. Just get the oil fill adapter and be done with it. Also looks better than all of them.

Demon, have you looked at the Elite billet cleanside unit? 1/2 price of GM's plastic empty one, and really does the job.

Trob, do you think MM would be willing to have their can tested like black&white? That would prove or disprove your claim as it seems everyone claims theirs is best. Follow that thread, I want to see how each of the popular ones stand up against "brandX". Seeing how poorly the Moroso is fairing and I thought by the way so many talk it was good as well.

What are your thoughts?

I wouldn't see why not he's done a ton of tests over on other forums (ls1tech, and corvette forums). Go to his web site and call him.
