Catch Can Oil Recovery

[Grisoman]

Folks with the cans . . . what amounts of oil are you collecting over miles driven? I typically collect about 4 oz over 3000 miles with the Challenger. Do you see oil blowby to the intake a significant Viper performance issue i.e. timing retard etc.?

I see at least that much on my Challenger SRT, but on my SRT10 RAM and 06 coupe I don't get much oil, maybe an ounce if that much in 2500 miles.

My goal was ZERO oil in the intake. I did notice some oil on the back of the throttle blades on both GenIII engines so I put can/vents on both of them.

you really only need them if your running the piss out of them all day everyday.

I'm going to put one on my street Viper. There is no benefit to routing engine ventilation through the intake.

That's been my experience. On the track, I empty the can every other run (25 minute sprints). On the street, hardly ever.

Yeah, I only really check/empty mine @ the track. Not much buildup during street use

I don't accumulate any with street driving.

Thanks for the feedback. Looks like the Hemi experience doesn't translate to the steet Viper. Won't mess with a can.
