Got mine in today and installed in in 30 seconds! Those hoses with tangs are just as amazing as zip ties... ![Big Grin](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Are you guys running just one seperator (passenger side) or would it be wise to also install one on the driver's side? I know 80% of the oil is apparently coming from the passenger side, but what about the remaining 20%?

True... but fortunately with the JLT you don't even have to do that. I installed mine with strut brace in place and engine cover slightly lifted in the front... you can easily reach the tangs (even with my big bumble fingers!). Just an easy install, period.

Thanks for all the great feedback guys.
We are testing the driver side on our 5.0 and so far are not seeing much of anything when on the street.
I had it on when I was running the road course @ VIR and damb near filled it, but that's with 30 minutes of 7000rpm driving and hard G's, so I don't see it needed on the street, but we are still testing.
We may release it, but will honestly tell you what to expect with street or track use.
Thanks
Jay

Here's mine after 500 miles of normal highway commute.
If this is not enough to convince you to buy one of these separators, I don't know what will!
Thanks to Jay Tucker for making these awesome catch cans!!!

Why is there oil being caught in these catch cans?? Putting to much oil on the filter??? You wouldnt get that problem if you used a cai with a dry filter???

You have no idea what is going on here if you think that this oil is coming from the intake filter.
Google is your friend. Look up "blow by".
