$10 Harbor Freight Catch Can
 

Picked this up at harbor freight for $8, got two 1/4" end fittings from auto store, gutted the inside of the "filter", reversed the spring to the outside of the "filter", and BAM...catch can.

This is after the first drive. (hour long drive) Yes, the zip ties are going away today.

It aint pretty, but it sure is clever.

Just put a little tint on it and it's good to go.

Tint, nothing! I think it's cool seeing through it.

Nice. You have a pic of the spring reversal?

Zip ties don't have to go. They do the job perfectly fine

I ran one of these on a budget build I did a while back except I used a steel pot scrubber to catch the oil.... same thing thats stuffed into valve cover vents on smallblocks to vent pressure but trap oil

i've used those before. all the function, none of the bling. just the way i like it :)

I don't, but Its very simple though. It comes with the valve in the bottom always open which is bad. So disassemble the bottom, and take the spring out. then put it back together and put the spring between the bottom ring nut and the clip. Provides enough pressure to seal the inside.

genius! Needs some duct tape to complete it

Ahh I gotcha ya. Wonder if I can find a petcock that would thread into that bottom hole for draining.

This is full of Win! Thanks.

You just push on the bottom and the valve opens, so you wouldn't need one, unless you had something else in mind.

Yeah wanted to add a small hose to make it cleaner to drain.
