Frank hammatime 10-05-2009, 05:58 AM They do end up catching a bit of oil and they look pretty cool too! buckshot42 10-06-2009, 06:19 AM They really look nice too! Rob99 10-06-2009, 06:42 PM I bought one for my C5(which my brother now owns and i maintain for him LOL) they work great and like others said do catch a lot of oil, i need to get on for my C6 now.

Dad's toy 10-07-2009, 04:06 AM Thanks for all the responses, seems like a worthy investment ohdon'tbanme! 10-08-2009, 06:34 AM Cool, I was on the fence for getting one myself so I think I will now!:thumbsup3: CorvetteDon 10-09-2009, 08:46 PM How long did it take to fill the can up half way? Seems like Chevy should be putting these catch cans on at the factory! Rob99 10-13-2009, 05:04 PM I check it about 3 times per oil change interval thats 5,000mi +or- it also depends how hard you drive it that will fill it up quicker. Rob99 10-13-2009, 05:07 PM im aware of the history of delco batts, i think thanks for the tip,mine is a AGM type that is not prone to leaking or they changed the post design not sure exactly, but that is the original batt 5 1/2 years old also trickled charged w/ a battery tender FWIW. danger! 10-14-2009, 01:17 PM im aware of the history of delco batts, i think thanks for the tip,mine is a AGM type that is not prone to leaking or they changed the post design not sure exactly, but that is the original batt 5 1/2 years old also trickled charged w/ a battery tender FWIW.
