I said I'd give it 30 days, but it probably won't last 10 full heat cycles.....
oil gets hot....DURhhhhhhhhhhh I have a ton of that tubing he used in the basement right now for brewing and it gets so pliable when we transfer from our 10 gallon brewing pot to the car-boy for fermentation. I can't imagine what that crap will do with the heat of the oil over and over.

the white pvc connectors are not auto grade either. why not just use AUTO parts??
those connectors will break from a warm fart. don't know what 200F will do but it won't be good.

It collects oil that is either blown by as well as collecting and limiting sludge build up......
usually most people needing to run a catch can are in the Turbo'd category, but some N/A motors with massive crank case pressure sometimes will also run one.

"it's also lighter weight than the expensive stuff" LMAO, because, you know that matters
I could offset that weight by taking a massive dump right before I climbed into the car.
