2009 Silverado with the 5.3 here. Your video helped, thanks! I unhooked the back one just so I could reach it better and left the top fitting in there. Sharp utility knife cut the hose easily.
I had installed JLT catch can on 5.3 lc9, it sure fills up quick i had to empty it ones before oil change. I am glad that it keeps all that excessive oil away from chamber.Easy install!!
if you drill a few extra holes and enlarge the one by the pvc and clean the valve cover you don't need a bunch of aftermarket parts or a so called updated valve cover
There's an entirely separate PCV system on the other cylinder bank going into the throttlebody. Should you put a T in the system or use two separate cans?
@@bignick45 no I wouldn’t put a T in, they’re 2 separate systems. This video is a catch can for your PCV, the other one side that feeds into your intake elbow is your CCV. You could technically add another catch can there.
Just installed my addw1 catch can and seems to have a slight hissing sound, is this normal ? I double checked everything and is correctly installed. Thanks
Received my can today thanks to this vid. But where did you get the other bracket to mount it to the alternator bolt? Mine only came with the small straight bracket.
Question I got my catch can that ADD sent me but they sent me the V3.3 is the higher version of the catch can. My issue is this can has three ports. Your tutorial was for only two. I have no clue we’re that third hose go to. Thanks
Great video, thank you. Question. I have an 08 Tahoe with a 5.3, and have only been running it for very short daily trips. I'm getting condensation in the oil, I hope only is anyway). Would one of these help with that ?
Probably not, the problem is that you're not driving long enough to get the oil up to full temp to boil off all the water/condensation. Maybe let it idle a little longer before you take off or try to take it on a longer drive every once in a while. If you're running E85 like me, it makes this problem even worse
I have a 2008 Silverado 1500 with a 5.3L engine that has about 182,000 miles on it. What could make it idle so roughly at stop lights? The lights will slightly dim when the idle drops and the truck jerks sometimes when driving (it is fair to say I am a "feather foot" and baby tap my vehicles' gas and break pedals) I've had Chevy dealership, automotive shops, and some mechanics tell me there is nothing wrong and all that is normal, but I do smell gas periodically. I have replaced the plugs, wires, coils, battery, alternator, charcoal, canister, purge valve canister, purge valve solenoid (which the shop replaced again for some reason), O2 sensors, fuel cap, fuel injectiors, fuel rail pressure sensor, MAP sensor, Air flow mass sensor, intake manifold gaskets, valve cover gaskets, transmission pan and gasket and bolts, transmission filter and fluids. I did have a leaking oil pan gasket, but Chevy replaced it. The only thing I was told is the fuel pumps tend to go out in this generation of chevys sometimes. Is there anything that comes to your mind or am I just looking for ghosts?
Sorry for the book reply, I just wanted to make sure I covered everything. Oh yeah, I replaced all blown fuses and corrected and replaced the door actuator, wiring harness, and bad window switches and driver door switch modules causing it and I couldn't find any paracitic draws when I tested it in circuit with a working multimeter, only found .01amps of current.
Hey, I would buy this kit, did they just send you out a aftermarket bracket or was it in the box? I want an ADD kit but want to be able use that bracket you’ve got
@@CaswellCustoms sweet. I’ve seen a few people say they didn’t get it in their kits so that’s why I was checking. I’d love to have one of those catch cans it I could for sure mount it there
Will this fit my 2008 1500 6.0 vortec max ? And where do I get that specific one? Been interested in getting one and wanted to know how its been working on your rig. Thanks
Depending on your blow by, you can possibly start to blow out seals with increase crank pressure. It can effect emissions as well if you cap them off too.
Not buying this kit. I don't like to cut OEM parts because the can $$ add up quick. The manufacturer of this kit can use a little more R&D. So you don't have to cut OEM hoses to make it work.
@@tonyp7074 You should have to do that. If you buy something for a specific application, the part should go on without and modifications to the part or vehicle to make the product work.
After 1000000 searches I found exactly what I needed. Thank you man!
Same dude lol

Just installed mine, looks good with peace of mind. Although they only sent half the mounting bracket but I fabricated a new mount up
Just what I was looking for, really straight forward.
Thanks for the video. I ordered one off your link.
I've been looking to get a catch can! (I don't gave my glasses on! Forgive me for any typos!)
This looks very good, & very easy! Thanks!
What about the passager side valve cover there’s a vent tube from the valve cover to the intake as well ?
You can run T’s for that line but it’s not necessary.
I had installed JLT catch can on 5.3 lc9, it sure fills up quick i had to empty it ones before oil change. I am glad that it keeps all that excessive oil away from chamber.Easy install!!
my pcv valve on the head sticks open on start up and put oil into the cylinders would installing this solve that issue?
@@michaelrizzo7322 it will help, but you most likely need to replace your valve cover.
Upgrade your throttle body to ls3. Inexpensive mod. It fits your year model. Great power. Make sure it’s gm
I’ve been looking on Facebook market place in my local area and I haven’t been able to find one.
Caswell Customs amazon and summit racing
I been wondering if that would work.
@@shawnmcclure7282 yeah it’s just plug and play. Have it on my truck.
Do you have a part # for an is3
what song is that at around 3:00? thanks!
You forgot to mention the 6.0 vortec max. Same oil displacement as the 5.3 just bigger cam and heads
Will this fit my 2008 6.0 1500? And where do I get that specific one? Been interested in getting one and wanted to know if it really works? Thanks
Have you had a chance to see how much the catch can collects and what the period of time was (i.e. miles)?
if you drill a few extra holes and enlarge the one by the pvc and clean the valve cover you don't need a bunch of aftermarket parts or a so called updated valve cover
My valve is stuck open I can blow air threw the line both ways update cover?
What’s the name of the stock part? The actual hose with inlet and outlet connector the original part
amzn.to/3u3DD1b
Thank you
Mine is a 07 with 30,000 miles on it ,with 1000 miles since I put it on catch can is dry on inside ,new pcv too
How’s the oil pressure any better?
No issues with oil pressure.
can you install it on a 4.8L 2010 sliverado?
Yes you can.
Ummm, what about the other side that feeds directly into the intake.
9:00 minutes in?

I’ve never noticed a whistling but my intake and headers are so loud I don’t notice.
Did it ever stop? Just installed mine today and whistling…
Which catch can did you use and where can I find one?
What is the top hose part called
Received my can today thanks to this vid. But where did you get the other bracket to mount it to the alternator bolt? Mine only came with the small straight bracket.
Hello could someone tell me what size diameter ID the rubber line is to fit on the OEM PCV tube is ? Thanks
thanks,,, very helpfull
Are these gdi engines by any chance? 6.2 right
Link?
There’s way cheaper options out there, do you think this one is worth it for the money??
You shouldn't have to cut anything to make this work. 5 extra inches of hose and a proper plug would've been great with such a nice kit
Will this catch can work on a 2009 Silverado 2500HD 6.0?
Yes it will work on the 6.0
I appreciate you letting me know I’ll definitely be getting one these bad ass catch cans! Thank you for the assistance!
Question I got my catch can that ADD sent me but they sent me the V3.3 is the higher version of the catch can. My issue is this can has three ports. Your tutorial was for only two. I have no clue we’re that third hose go to. Thanks
@@johnnyluk8695 check out our Instagram story I’m showing how you can use that third port.
@@CaswellCustoms I went to your Instagram and followed you but can you show me what I can do. Thanks
Looks awesome, but damn that's expensive for a catch can.
I’d rather pay closer to $200 for a catch can kit then have to replace the motor or something with the carbon deposit on the valves🤷♂️
Great video, thank you.

From the videos I've watched I see some guys collecting moisture and oil in these cans, for what it's worth I'd say yes it would help you.
Does that mean you lose oil?
Yes but it’s oil that would have been burned off in the cylinders because it was getting ram into the Intake.
@@CaswellCustoms that's a very good point! You've woke my subscription! Is it okay u can ask another question?
Go for it

What size hoses are those?
Looks good
Hey, I would buy this kit, did they just send you out a aftermarket bracket or was it in the box? I want an ADD kit but want to be able use that bracket you’ve got
The bracket came with the kit.
@@CaswellCustoms sweet. I’ve seen a few people say they didn’t get it in their kits so that’s why I was checking. I’d love to have one of those catch cans it I could for sure mount it there
@relicrecoveryspecialist16 as long as you get the exact one I linked it’ll have it
This good for 4.8 too?
Yes it is
Will this fit my 2008 1500 6.0 vortec max ? And where do I get that specific one? Been interested in getting one and wanted to know how its been working on your rig. Thanks
Yes it will fit, and it’s the exact same one as this. It fits all vortecs from these years, and it’s worked great for me!
I don't know if they work or not
ADDW1 didn’t include the mounting brackets or the oem quick disconnect. Went with them after watching this video. Very disappointed!
Did you order the exact one I linked? Reach out to their customer service and they’ll make it right.
@@CaswellCustoms yes exact same. I did reach out, waiting on them to reply.
Thanks for the vid. I'm considering this..Are you trapping any contaminants between oil changes ?
Yes we have, definitely recommend this!
@@CaswellCustoms Thanks ! I'll be ordering tonight.
❤
Hey man how long did it take you to get your catch can? I ordered one for my truck after watching this and a week later, it still hasn’t even shipped.
Mine came in a couple weeks, they’re based out of Canada, so with everything going on international shipping isnt the easiest right now.
Why not just cap both?
Depending on your blow by, you can possibly start to blow out seals with increase crank pressure. It can effect emissions as well if you cap them off too.
If your truck doesn't burn oil this catch can wouldn't have no benefit right
Not buying this kit. I don't like to cut OEM parts because the can $$ add up quick. The manufacturer of this kit can use a little more R&D. So you don't have to cut OEM hoses to make it work.
Just go to a wrecking yard buy a second one so you still have the original.
@@tonyp7074 You should have to do that. If you buy something for a specific application, the part should go on without and modifications to the part or vehicle to make the product work.
That hose is a $10 part to replace
Not always. Thats what u expect for aftermarket modification. If people dont wanna modify then stay stock. @JW02828
Buy a second part, new or used what else, are You a donkey🤡💩
Way over priced , about 100 bucks too high .
What size hose does it use?
