Very cool, custom and unique bracket you have there. Thanks for sharing. I know I have way less now with my fresh rebuild that I used to.

The major contributor to the oil in the pcv system in a healthy lt5 is high rpm runs, it pressurizes the cranckcase, the catchcan seperates the oil being blown into the pcv system.

You think high rpms does the job you should see what a little boost does. I've blown out the dip-stick several times before adding the catch cans. Yes, two of them...
