Talking Re: Catch can increases fuel economy
I started with that coalescing filter and found it too restrictive, some had dip sticks backing out due to pressure build up. Just try to blow thru it.....................

At the least I suggest trashing the filter element ment for compressed air and using a piece of fiberglas to catch the oil mist, without the terrific back pressure it causes under high boost conditions when blow by is significant. Woody

Others had first played with that, I designed one using the cut off length of the first CAI pipes from Rob at needswings. With stainless steel wool, the passage of spent gasses is low restriction, drains well, and Rob even made a clean package of it.
