Did you run it after you got it?

No I didn't but he did drive and parked it where I could swap it. I never did disconnect anything yet so maybe I could if I had a skid steer.

True, I took of a valve cover that has the hose going to it but it almost looked bone dry

The catch can looks pretty sweet and looks like it could almost fit where my gas vapor can used to be.

Yup. I put one on my 2000 Durango and it was amazing to see how much oil vapor builds up in there.

Yea try putting a cheap one on a old 350...you'll see what I'm talkin bout. Even that air line drier will do the same. Just have to put a container of some sort under to contain the oil vapor

It was pretty nice, except for bad assembly.
