by the sound of things, radium would suit your needs

Get the tap attachment so you can drain it without removing the can.


or

Full blown

Thanks. I considered both options:

Raidum is not a VTA-type can, although a very high quality product. It also uses the same holes for mounting which are already occupied by Grimmspeed hood struts in my car :)

Fullblown is good but doesn't work for me either since I have a small Shorai battery on PTuning mounting kit while the FB can needs a standard size battery tie-down for mounting.

Im running radium dual catchcan setup with the pcv side modified to vent to atmosphere

Stay away from Crawford engineering products. Especially due to ZERO customer help especially to an Army member for the blowing his FA20 engine with this catch can. The engine was fully built with crawfords internals and its sleeved too, but it had the same issues shown here with our supercharged frs that began the post.

They, Crawford, knew and were/ are aware of this issue and have done nothing to conduct a recall. It is simple, they won't pick up the tab.

I have evidence of them stating all this. Email, videos, text, and recorded conference phone conversation with their own consultant that lead me to:
And they talked me into getting up to two oil restrictors for the turbo. Enough said why, but the engine pushes oil all the way through the tail pipe even with the refreshed turbo, and its two restrictors.

It is expected that the rings or the valve seal are out, but all of you knows what this means, pull the engine out and rebuild it again.

Getting ready to post all of this evidence to the public and once the leak down test its done by a mechanic the report will be sent to an attorney. After this a box with all of its parts will be sent to them with a trojan box of condoms. You figure out the rest.

And in addition to this, if this block was not sleeved by Dan Benson itll be sent to Suba Performance/ Boost Creep in Denver with another box of condoms as they ripped this man. They left 4 different spark plugs and a bad tune on this build and it detonated, just to say the least.

Thanks for the effort guys, but a video of the engine running is of no benefit to finding out if the AOS is connected correctly or not. The silicone on the valve cover fixing the leak in that spot is totally unrelated to the way the AOS is connected and also has no benefit to us, both of these issues need to be addressed with the person or shop responsible for installing that valve cover incorrectly and whatever else was done to cause the massive amount of oil entering your exhaust system.

Again, thanks for the effort.

Well, we have not sold a catch can for about 15 years now so I must assume you are speaking of our Air Oil Separator. If so then all our AOS are designed and engineered to function correctly on a NA engine as well as an FI engine. We also never vent our AOS to atmosphere for many reasons and one of the main ones is your crankcase needs a vacuum pulled on it to suck out the fumes. If not then the inside of your crankcase is stagnant and just fills up with fuel vapors which contaminate the oil after a while.

Take care and thanks for choosing Crawford

1: Your posts on this are incredibly difficult to read. From what you have posted I can't see how you are blaming Crawford.

2: Crawford asks for pictures and you just tell them it was installed correctly because some shop did it. Then you send them receipts for engine damage and videos of your car smoking? What do you think they are going to do with that?

'Tuner A, you suck. My motor exploded. Took it to Tuner B and he said the tune was off. Here are receipts of my purchase of ECU tuning from Tuner B. He is a tuner so he tuned the car right." Stay tuned for more empirical proof.

There are images of all, and all were sent to them. Replying via phone limits the chance to reduce image size. Theyll be posted. Soon.

Same deal with tuners as Amputechture explains.

Also the reading dificulties are due to the pastes from the email traffic and not all of the contents transfered. However it definitely shows the communication.

Hey Efferalgan and all
The effects on valve covers, crank case, turbo drain, and valve seals from Crawford AOS is cofirmed. Have a very low mileage on a build engine and the bore scope clearly shows the leak from the valve seal. Too soon for oem seals to lose their seal capabilities. There are other few notes and images of the leak from the valve cover when it was pressurized by the use of the AOS. The engine had as much oil as the HKS FRS system as mentioned above too. There's premature ware and its repair should be covered by Crawford performance Engineering. BTW What would you do if the engine has Crawford's forged internals knowing that this has happened with the AOS? What would you do with the internals? Send all back to Crawford and redo the engine with other brand?

I know this is an old thread but I was curious if there were more people with this problem on NA cars. I have the crawford AOS and recently checked on the system while cleaning my throttle body. I found that there was a small amount of oil in the line that goes to the intake tube. I don't really know how this could be happening so if anyone has some info it would be much appreciated!
