Oil Seperators / Catch Cans

Have any of you guys fitted an Oil Seperator / Catch Can, to your 5.0 GT's?

If you have, what brand did you fit?

From my research, it appears manufactures only produce an Oil Seperator for the Passengers Side, and not for both sides.

Steeda provides their billet oil separator assembly itself, plus a host of fittings allowing you to add an oil separator to the passenger or driver's side. You can use the supplied fittings with the factory hoses, or go with the standard 1/2" aftermarket hoses.

JLT FTW!!

JLT here. Supposedly the passenger side has a lot more oil than driver's side

I have the passenger side, im still looking for the drivers side. I have the JLT

I had bought a JLT from LMR, but after reading up on the UPR catch can I decided it was worth upgrading to.

I am a lot happier with the UPR, if for nothing other than build quality and looks. It catches oil, and looks a lot more purpose built for the job.

I do not like how UPR put heat shrink on the check valve hose so I couldn't see the arrow for flow...but easy to figure out. Also, no instructions to verify you have it set up right. The bottom part of the can unscrews, so I don't see why the can doesn't come with a drain at the bottom. A insulating sleeve of some sort would be nice too, sort of like the stuff you wrap around water lines.

I have the JLT catch can on the passenger side. Been on for about 600 miles. I emptied it last week and had about at tablespoon of oil in it.

I don't think anyone is making a drivers side can, it has been said that no oil/or a very trace amount wlould make it through there.

I have the UPR on mine and it is great!

I noticed that too. Is there any reason why the passenger's side collects so much oil? Been trying to find an answer with not much luck, mostly out of curiosity.

For some reason there seems to be much more suction out of the passenger side vacuum line than the driver's side. If you pop the driver's side line with the engine running there is barely any air getting sucked in from there. If you pop off the passenger side, there is a ton of suction noise right up until the engine dies.

'redgt': I installed a dual valve catch can on my EB. The can came with a bottom 1/4 turn brass drain. I would check with UPR and find out if the GT can has the same diameter and threading as the dual valve. They may be able to sell you the can bottom with drain...if the two can bottoms are compatible.

I knew that much, I was just curious what caused it. Thanks for your input though for sure! I have the passenger side and I guess that's all that really matters.

I'm using Bob's.
