Yup I have a duramax. Best truck I’ve ever owned thus far. We ordered a at4 for our Daily as the duramax is just a little to much truck for when we go to the city, not to mention the regens and fuel consumption when in town. Our last 1500 has a 6.2 and it was a demo. It didn’t have a cc but after 15000km the intake looked like it was 5 years old. I want to make sure I have a cc on before I take delivery this time around.

As an aside, the your L5P dmax has an oil separator. 

L5P is first dmax to have one.

Yes, but the 2019 new body engines L82, L84 and L87 benefit from an improved rocker cover with integral separation over the L83 and L86 rocker covers with integral separation.

I think JLT is the only one that has any pictures or videos out there.

 

Does anyone have any more different brand catch can installation photos?  I'm finding a bunch of nothing online for the 5.3 T1's

 

ADD-W1?

 

UPR?

 

Elite Engineering?

 

McNally?

I installed the elite engineering can I removed from  my 2015 5.3 onto my 2019 5.3. I didn't want to mount it on the firewall because I'm short and don't really want to unbolt the can to be able to empty and clean it. So I just set it in a little gap next to the air filter box. Not elegant but it's a snug fit and doesn't move around and super easy to lift up and take apart. I've since removed it because I keep taking my truck in to have a vibration diagnosed. 

 

This photo is after about 1000 miles. Not a lot but I mostly like having a can installed because it keeps the throttle body and intake clean.

Here's some photos from the install. The hose connections are in slightly different locations from the previous gen 5.3 but still close and easy to find the PVC hose that you pull out.

Looks like UPR just updated their website.  Unfortunately it doesn't look like they offer anything for the 2019 5.3?  I wonder what is so different about the 6.2 and 5.3 hook ups for a catch can?

I have the 5.3 and purchased the JLT catch can. Installation was easy and it is collecting oil as designed. The price was really nice! $149 and free shipping

UPR makes one specifically for the 19-20 5.3 now.  I ordered one today.

I don't know too much about engines but I am interested in doing this install. Can you advise me on the advantages of the UPR vs the JLT version? I see the that the JLT one is much smaller. Does that matter? Also, is it worth it to pay the extra $150 for the UPR dual valve version vs the single valve one?

The UPR I bought is the single sided $200 version.

About $50 more than the JLT.  The UPR looks to have more storage capacity and the hoses look more factory too.  On mine the hoses are a little too long but I'm sure they would be easy to shorten.  I will probably shorten the hoses when I do an air intake kit.  The factory air box hide the hoses now.

 

I'm no expert but the dual set up seems a little excessive for stock use engine.  I would stay away from systems that put the recovered oil back into the engine.

      Can ask that about a lot of places.   Holiday sells 91 for $1 over 87 octane. BP 93 is 80 cents. Amoco 93 is 80 cents Kwik Trips is $1.20 for 92 or whatever they have and $1 for the 91.   I know that this is not exactly same as what you are saying with the premium to premium debate of those two stations but why is there such a difference. Top Tier this and that, it's all BS. All the fuel comes from the same damn refinery, so give me a break.

      Why does Mobil Premium cost 90 cents a gallon more than Shell Premium when their regular offerings are but pennies apart?

      Was all the way down to $3.69 a gallon but then jumped back to $3.99 just because for some reason.   Diesel floats between $4.80's to $5.10ish a gallon. I even saw Diesel #1 for $6.09 today but nobody in there right mind even buys that in the summer.

      OTA updates and radio still cuts out

      Mine just keeps lagging or getting stuck on the reverse camera. When I turn off the truck, get out, and close the door it will still stay on. It’s very intermittent and I would not be able to duplicate the issue.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I was checking out fuel prices at my farm fuel retailer at their pumps and yes the farm price is a bit lower than the non dyed fuel and was glad to see that the regular farm gas price has dropped a lot from what it had been but what blew me away was the price of diesel as the spread now compared to before the prices went up earlier in the year, diesel was actually slightly lower than gas which was a switch from the theme the last number of years. However that sure isn't the theme lately and definitely not right now. The prices I will post are not from that retailer but just looking at gasbuddy for the main city in this area and instead of posting the lowest price someone found I will list the higher price ( and that may not be the highest price, just whatever someone posted on gasbuddy ).   So regular gas and there are a lot of stations listing the same price for regular is 1.68 a liter, premium 2.00 a liter. Diesel 2.03 a liter for a top price I saw on diesel.   Figures out to 6.36 a us gallon Canadian funds for regular and 7.68 for diesel. With the US exchange rate it would be 4.58 us for regular and 5.53 for diesel.    Thought I would figure that out to get a picture of what it settles out like compared to various US prices and its about the same as the current price in Fairbanks AK as Anchorage tends to be lower. So yes, these would be the prices and higher along the way on the Alaska highway where they know they have a captured market !, for fuel prices for those beginning the long drive back to the lower 48   The problem is our Canadian dollar and going to the states that have the high prices, boy do we pay then !
