They still do. Sorry that you think they don’tThis forum is a fucking joke. Tech sections used to mean something.

I'm surprised this post got so many replies but the main reason I got a catch can was to keep oil out of the new intake manifold I'm going to install. I imagine the oem intake is full of oil crud since this car never had a catch can.

There are still a lot of good people left on this forum trying to keep the tech sections alive. Those who have little or nothing of value to add in the tech sections tend to hang around in non-tech threads looking for arguments instead.

A closed (to atmosphere) driver's side catch can that retains a one-way valve between the valve cover and the catch can (with flow direction towards the catch can) is definitely a good idea. That one-way valve can either be the existing PCV valve or an "upgrade". You're fortunate that the PCV valve is removable on the Coyote and that makes a substitute possible.
And yet your still on here, so what's your excuse
My catch can would be 80% full. Once I switched to 100% synthetic oil, the catch can collects very little. Remember the pix Dimora posted on the roush forum, when he removed his blower ? Oil from one end of the intake manifold to the other. Plus oil soaked intercooler. All that oil in the intake manifold not only makes a helluva mess, it apparently, also reduces the octane rating a bit, of your gas.I'm not good or smart enough to be on the FB group. No fenderwell lighting or wheels with the wrong offset or tires of the wrong height.
It baffles me the concern people have with oil in their intake manifold. Cars since time eternal have had oil in the intake manifold. There's never been a proven case of Covid transmission outdoors, nor has there been one negative event from having some oil in an intake manifold.
People need to take up unicycling or something.
Donate the seperator $$ to your favorite charity or political party - I suggest the mypillow guy or donald trump.
the Chinese? I think that an average one would go at least 125-130#They don't weigh very much at least.

I have not investigated a 3v or coyote pcv. On older cars where pcv valves are replaced at tune up, there is clearly a moving part inside. Its there to reduce, not stop flow of crank case gases. For one thing, need to limit flow at idle, so the pcm can control idle. Once the car is driving, the pcv can fully open, vaccum does the rest. At zero vacuum, there meybe no pcv flow or gases get pushed into the intake from crank case pressure.

A PCV valve is NOT a check valve. It is more a variable orifice for the lack of a better description. It is resteicting flow (not blocking) under high vacuum conditions.
No catch can on my car, and I run the piss out of it.
I should take apart the "pcv valve" in my car. Has anyone? Is it anything besides a baffle - it is possible it is just an orifice.
There is a LOT of PCV flow. And high vacuum at idle.

I think you mean passenger side as the drivers side never had a pcv valve.
Yes I know, besides allowing more vacuum I don't really see a downside with N/A vehicle. The drivers side can still pull fresh air no problem.
