This unit is actually for the Hemi Charger but with a little work it will work fine for the stang. The two side holes use a 3/8 NPT.

I plan to replace the supplied brass hose fittings and go with AN fittings (Mr Gasket/Shadow Series) and a breaded line from Airoquip.

Looks nice. How big is it? Looks like a couple inches judging by the pic.

It measures 4 1/2 inch high from the nut bottom to the top of the can. Diameter is 3 inches. It's fairly compact it holds at least 4X the volume of my Home Depot thing. Plus it's ez to purge with that valve drain :nice: and don't forget the bling factor! :rofl2:

What is this, an oil separator for the PCV circuit? How much?

Thats nice! What do they cost??

Thanks for sharing as I have been searching for a small, but decent quality catch can and this one meets both those requirements :nice:

Please keep us posted on how the install goes!

This has your name all over it Doug! Looks great Jed :nice:

Looks like UPR's, but smaller - with a drain plug & hose.

You are no help Robert!! The size is definitely right. But with the exit hole being on the side and not on the top, this one probably won't work given the odd location of the inlet on my SC:banghead:

Yes it's an oil separator....



I think it cost me $145.00 for the "kit" a little pricey but it met all of my install and visual requirements. I've been looking for this for maybe a year; I first saw it at SEMA this year. I bought it from Lethal Performance the stock number is 85472.

Nice pictures, did you use a light box or just a white paper and good lighting?

I did a quick and dirty light setup using a Dyno Lite 1000xr pack and two strobes heads bare bulb. I should have used a couple of soft boxes then the white would of been more pure white. But I was lazy I just bounched light off of my ceiling. My soft boxes are buried under a bunch of car parts. :(

For those looking for one, go with a BKU oil separator. Brett at BKU will custom make it per your mods. It's pretty identical to the ones you can get from Steeda, however he alters the setup for your needs. Plus it looks good for $45.

How do you get in touch Brett @ BKU ?

Are you talking about this unit...>

Dude there is no comparison to the Moroso unit. This is exactly what I'm getting away from a Home Depot style solution. This is just an off the counter part (w/ to many adapters) that is semi effective and leaky at times if you run synthetic oil. Cost effective yes, but effective MEH. If you're motor is blown that's even more reason not to go down this path. I know a lot of people take this route but it's not for me this unit doesn't raise the bar to me as a separator, plus it's FuGly!

I have the Steeda unit and it is basically the same as the BKU , except it doesn't have the fittings to increasing the size for the larger hoses. It does look like the knob on the bottom is metal on the BKU unit , where as the Steeda one is plastic and has already broken so I don't drain it through the bottom. It's the same size as the Steeda one and I empty mine every weekend to keep oil below the filter and that's only a couple of table spoons of oil. Plus the bowl is plastic and I unscrew it to empty the oil so I'm always worrying about breaking it. Also I had to buy a supply of O rings for it since they don't last long with the oil. I've been planning on changing it for some time and I like this Moroso one the best ...

I am looking into these catch cans.. do you need two? one for each valve cover? i get that from these ebay pictures...

Yes, but no. You cant go buy the parts from home depot, because they are not rated for oil use. Now, I cant speak intelligently on the matter, but trust me if you talk to Brett you will not be disappointed.

I prefer to see how much oil is going into the catch cup, vs guessing, It's simple to drain and has never leaked a drip.

I believe that's the UPR one. You only need one for the driver's side and make sure it's 5/8ths fittings & hose not the 3/8ths they normally send you.
