I currently have a 15 with Molnar rods and diamond pistons. I set the ring gap for 15-30 psi which may be causing more smoke than normal i'm not sure. I'm on a 3.48 pulley. My issue is i'm running breathers. I get alot of smoke from both breathers. I went ahead and tested compression to be sure I wasn't having a bad ring issue I have 210-215 compression across the board. I have been looking for a catch can set up that works with the Paxton and connects to both valve covers, as i'm tired of the smoke/smell from the breathers. Is there any good solution out there? Does everyone else get alot of smoke from their breathers?

I also went with the Molnar Boost Rods over the Manley. How do you like them? I'm curious to see the differences.

I like the molnars they seem very Stout and well made. And I have seen the one beefcake has I was going to buy it. But there is not very good pics where are the connections at? It doesn't look like it connects to the valve cover on the passenger side. Could you happen to snap a few pics for me? And will it work with a boss manifold?

Good I'm just tired of the smoke. So this should take care of it.

Man... I was just about to ask about this. I just bought the oil cap breather and I have a UPR catch can but it wouldn't work because the blow off valve pipe is right where the UPR catch can used to sit. I guess I have to order longer hoses and whatever hose the driverside valve cover needs?? Will the oil separator I've been using work with my vortech supercharger? Is the UPR Oil separator catch can different from the UPR catch can for all motor cars?

It depends on the can you have. We have a kit for the Vortech which mounts it on the driver side by the air box.

The boost specific catch cans made by UPR are great, I highly recommend looking into those. I'm running one in my car, it works much better than breathers. Also make sure you vent the passenger side breather when boosting these cars.
