Oil seperator

Born To Run · Mar 18, 2009

I would like to replace my oil seperator that runs from the top of the passenger side valve cover to the the air inlet tube of my Kenne Bell.
The one i have know looks like a dogs leg with no less than 6 hose clamps & is flopping over.
Whats up with the goofy fitting on our valve covers?
Any pic or suggestions would be great.

What I did with mine is just to simply cut the factory hose right in the middle, then take a razor blade and slit the hose back to the fitting. Eventually, you'll hit the nipple portion of the fitting, and then you can replace it with a nice piece of 5/8" emissions-duty hose, or a piece of -10 line. Keeps the function of the factory hose ends, but lets you do whatever your heart desires in between...

My set up is very similar to the above. I used the stock ends with some braided stainless, AN fittings and a Morosso can because Stef's was back ordered. I want to say the parts were around $180 but it has been a while.

I just made a bracket to bolt it to my whipple shroud as it was the easiest way to run it.

I empty the can when I change the oil and there is a fair amount in the can everytime.

Here are the best pics I can find.

Before you add a separator, you might want to read this post. Between the advice of JDM and Adam, I went with breathers instead.

Thanks Don,i read that last night on another forum that i had googled for oil seperator.
I think i will try some breathers the K&N ones look good,but the fittings coming out of my valve cover,one is a PCV vale & the other is bent @ 45 degrees,how do the breathers marry to them?In other words what would you do?
Do you have these? If so what is the part #?
