Catch can help!!!

[Kuuups]

I’m looking to get a catch can for my 18 Silverado 5.3 4x4 w/ about 15,000 miles. I seen the JLT catch can on American trucks.com and I’ve seen the elite catch can on some YouTube videos. What would be better for me if I’m gonna be running a s&b intake and a cam in the very near future? And also would I need a clean side separator? Been seeing things about WOT and high oil pressure without one being installed... kinda just wanna get this mod done in one crack without having to go back and get more things.

I'd go Elite with CSS, but only because that's what I have and I'm very happy with it.  May as well just get the best and be done with it right?

Elite and the separator is overkill and not needed. But if u want it get it.

Remember that the can won't catch ALL the oil vapor. But it will get a lot of it. You may still see traces of it in your intake tube.

Where would I connect the css hose to if I’m getting the S&B intake? Do I need to drill a hole?

I was reading something about the oil pressure acting weird when the truck is wot without the css. So I wasn’t really sure to get that too or just the can.

The truck will not notice a thing with a catch can installed.

I have the JLT on my 19'. Great USA made quality and does the job. It's more plug & play than the Elite. I couldn't install it because I had a sprained foot but the guy that did install it for me, did it in 15 min. literally. I could have bought either but chose the JLT because everything I read pointed to the JLT being an easier install. Quality wise, I don't think you can go wrong with other one. (Elite or JLT)

I just got mine in the mail from mightymouse solutions for my 17. I run one on my trans am. Very nice catch can, built solid.

Never seen those. They look nice. But it looks huge!

My only issue with the JLT is the mounting location.

What don't you like about the location of the JLT? I think it's fine. Is it maybe hard to reach to empty or something else?

Don't know exactly, I don't have that intake, but connects the same place the stock valve cover tube on the driver's side would go.

I don’t like how far the oil has to travel uphill to the can. The mounting location is to high up.  Whereas the Elite is mounted closer to and level with the intake. Probably not a big deal just me being picky.

I really don't think that makes a difference. Both of them in the end collect the oil the same way. The Catch can relies on vacuum & not gravity. Doesn't matter if the can sits high or low. But I get it. I can be picky too!
