Default My DSM CatchCan Setup

Everyone knows DSM's suck for crankcase venting from factory... and lots suffer from blowing out the dipstick and making a oil mess and possible fire hazard. Here is my solution..





I removed the baffling from the Valvecover, used two -10 fittings, the can is a fair size.. and than it has to two vents on the top. I also use a -8 drainback to the pan.

I also mounted my battery it so its out of the way, it fits nicely and I can still get to it no problem to boost it if i ever have too. Plus no disconnect needed since its still under the hood.

the hoses and fittings are all just push-loc A1 Performance stuff, and the weld on fittings are vibrant, same stuff I used for all my fuel lines.

I honestly doubt it, I run a 25/75 mix of chilled water/meth when im at power levels and/or have ambient temperatures im concerned with. My IAT's are always fair close to ambient.
