It's a crying shame actually for GM to do this, and I used to work at Chevrolet. Such a beautiful piece of work this ZL1 is and to leave out a properly designed oil separater is a crime IMHO.
Any photos?

This was posted to the ZL1 Facebook group. It’s a stock 2017 with 67,000 miles and no catch can. According to the owner, the car has not been babied.

Does the oil laying in the bottom of your supercharger look worse than this?
