Default K-series Catch Cans

Post up your K-series catch cans. I dont want to see a catch can that is environment friendly, im looking for the high boosted applications.

I plan on a basic catch can from the valve cover, but want to see other ideas before i weld on my catch can fittings.

I plan on using -10an line to a box where the battery goes.

Your planning isn't good. You wont catch anything from the valve cover unlike b-series. If you want a performing catch can setup you have to hook up a vented catch can to the PCV valve and cap the intake manifold off.

Your best bet for an effective catch can set up is the T1 Race Development set up

http://www.t1raceparts.com/category_s/1.htm

And it comes off the valve cover and drains back into the block

We can build the cans with any inlet/outlet configuration. That particular can was specific to that application, the customer wanted 4 -12 bungs. I can do it however you want.

I have built a couple for myself and friends.

I made Tanners catch can on his red hatch. I'm sure you seen it Tony. I ran that on my old hatch before I sold everything on it.

I do like the idea of the -12an lines more than the -10an. I know that I want to route it just like that hatch has it, inline with the pcv and on the back of the valve cover. Just wanted more ideas

I don't remember that my K20 has those ports on the back of the block.

Would a good drain be to go to the oil pan kind of like a turbo return line?

I would imagine the hose and fittings are the bulk of the cost, so why not just buy bigger bungs/outlet?Like 12AN

Not everyone wants the dirty, contaminated oil draining back into their pan and recirculating through their engine. You don't need (or want) a drain-back unless it's puking profuse amounts of oil into the can.

i used to think the same thing but i got sick of that damn thing filling up so fast, i mean like 1 day! i discussed it with a friend and we came to the conclusion that the oil in the can is only milky cause it sits there being exposed to all the cc fumes, but if you drain it back right away it should stay clean, i added a -10 to th bottom of my can and tee'd it to one of my block ports and no more full can and my oil is still clean
