Fit however many in the can snug and plumb it up...I have a super dodgy set up (both entry and exit are opposite each other by only 2") and I collect a decent amount. Mine is installed on the rear breather only (seems to be the one that has the most oil vapour) and the front I just put a filter sock with zip tie onto it.

But then this is to much to add to a oil can that wasn't made right, and at best, is a useless system. Antz may produce other good products, but the oil catch can is a joke. This oil can may look good and bolt up, but it wont do it's job unless you have to add material for it to work. How about a drain plug at the bottom, or any kind of filtration. At this point, I'm looking at the crank case oil catch can ( with filter ) from repco. ZACbaldy, I'll never believe a word that comes out of your mouth again................ Though I am open for any body else's suggestion to an oil catch can that works for the turboed XR6system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never rusts (stainless steel) and never breaks down as its got a film of oil in it for life.My only other suggestion is a fake "Provent" catch can on ebay. They work excellent also as the ripoffs use double layer very fine steel mesh and you can buy the paper filter to fit them if you feel real paranoid... Fittings are 19mm or there abouts so you need to step it down with brass fittings or whatever if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got offered a fairly awesome job yesterday. I’m now a Senior Project Manager (construction sector in government). It’s a job I’ve been dreaming and working toward for a long time now and stoked to have worked hard enough that an engineering degree wasn’t required due to enough proven experience and results. Pretty excited to say the least and ready to take on the new challenge! 😝🥰 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent position in terms of pay, and went into it filling a hole left by some campaigner from a few weeks back who was clearly fairly incompetent as I'm still fixing his mistakes (and earning instant respect in the process) instead of doing the 2 weeks of induction/training haha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
