oil catch can installed correct? pix included

[Vash]

Hey all wondering if my oil catch can is installed correctly. I've had it for a few months. Not a drop of oil in there and now im wondering if i installed it correctly. The can i dont think has a baffle in it. maybe some steel wool inside may help? Thanks a lot!

yea thas correct. i jus have the tube runnin stright to my intake. i always check the hose goin to it but its never wet or oily. i think its only useful if u are racin doin a lot of redlining.

I think you should have replaced the t-fitting with a straight fitting. In that pic above you basically bypassed the factory catch can. So, essentially you have no catch can for the one that goes back into the block. This is what I mean.

...it cant go back in the block if its being pushed out...and so wut if it goes back in..its jus oil vapor.

then why did the factory put one there? I dunno. I guess it's been working for you for a while....

hell idk...i never cracked the factory one open but there must be a long pipe coming up from the bottom side otherwise it would jus run back down...but i have seen many people remove the mid catch tank.... so....it must not hurt....i guess
