2020 R Oil Separator

Thanks for correcting my typo of PVC! I just had visions of owners fitting plastic pipes to the crankcase!

Just installed Ford Performance oil separator driver's side. Notice how separator gets in the way of oil deep stick. It's a little difficult now to check the oil level.

Pull from the firewall side of the strut brace. Comes out straighter and cleaner.

Anyone know off hand if the FP passenger side clear the Mishimoto expansion tank?

Recently got a 2020 R. Should I get a passenger side oil separator? Is it necessary?

Get both drivers and passengers side. Everyone reports slight oil accumulation on the passenger side and some report occasional accumulation on the drivers side- why risk it on such a nice car? The Ford factory parts look the best and they're not difficult to clean out... just remove the four allen screws and soak up the oil with paper towel. Very easy.

I think it's a waste of time and money for the driver side. I had it running on both my track pack for 5000 miles, barely got wet / moist inside... just use one on the passenger side if you really want...

Has anyone thought about using the passenger side 2020 GT500 air/oil separator, it drains back into the valve cover? I though that I had read that it will work on the 2020 GT350's.

Here is are the installation instructions.

Check your passenger side valve cover for this plug, this is were the return hose nipple attaches.

Guys, FP sells the package designed for the GT500 as a kit for GT350’s.

Correct, but the last time I looked at the installation, you had to replace the Voodoo valve covers with GT500 valve covers because the Voodoo valve covers don't have the right bits to enable the installation of the oil separator. Oh, and the Voodoo covers are black plastic and the GT500 ones are aluminum, so it'll look goofy if you only replace the passenger side cover, which is all you actually need. All the necessary parts at MSRP priced out at around $750. I can empty my FP catch cans many times for that price.
