oil catch tank?
just wondering... some guy told that oil catch tanks can be model and/or year specific... is this true?

What is a oil catch tank?
I have heard the phrase, but dont know what it is? |
Model and year specific can mean that the vendor knows it will fit that model and year, not necessarily that it was made specifically for it.

im pretty sure "Catch cans" are only used on turbo applications.. i could be wrong though
|
vipernicus42 is that an answer or a question?

It's a ricer phrase.

Oil catch tanks are usually used on Turboed cars
To prevent sludge build up and some other crap I dont remember it all |
It is important to prevent oil from getting into the intercooler on a turbocharged car. They can be installed on any car or motorcycle however and some racing rules require them. In a nutshell they collect any unburned or overflowed oil. Note there are other types of catch cans as well. A local club member has a nice page on installing. http://reganrotaryracing.tripod.com/catch.htm
