  • Catch Can

    I was wondering if anybody here with a Turbo or Supercharger has ever done or fabricated a Catch Can? If so how did you do it?

    Is there an advantage to this over the PCV plug and valve breather?

    Re: Catch Can

    I've seen discussion on how plugging the PCV is bad, but I never seemed to have an issue with the plug/breather combo on my Powerdyne'd bird. But I never got any higher than 7 psi either...

    If I had it to do again, I'd just do the plug/breather and let the catch can go....

      What's your pulley size? I've seen 9psi on mine with my 3.2 pulley. It just depends on how you launch the car.

      I was just watching Mighty Car Mods and they did a Catch Can mod and they noticed gains in HP/TQ. It made me wonder too if this is better and safer for force inducted cars.

        I'm pretty sure I was running a 3.2 smooth...no grooves...I sold it a couple years back and its starting to get fuzzy though. :(

          I always use the Peterson Catch cans.
