I just discovered what allot already seem to know. Are these "catch cans" the thing to do? anybody got a picture of one installed? How about good or bad reviews about them? Who makes a good one or a better one? All help much appreciated!!

They work I get 1/2 to 3/4 full between oil changes. The bottom can be hard to unscrew depending on where its mounted, I was thinking of adding a drain valve in the bottom to drain at time of changing oil instead of unscrewing it every time.

I have one that uses a petcock (like a radiator) on the bottom....not a Challenger, but you get the idea.

They separate the suspended oil from the air stream by going through a baffle where it drips down into the container. Much better then re burning the oil in the motor and also creating a mess in the intake.

I built something similar for about 25 bucks for my LS1 TA. Those cars get a lot of spark retard because of the oil. I did a lot of Autotap testing on 3 cars, mine was the only one w/ a catch can mod, it was the only one w/ no spark retard.
I want my fair share
