"Designed to protect the LT1’s intake from becoming an oil slick, this catch can mounts in-line with the PCV system to separate oil and air using a 50 micron bronze filter. "

It's more a symptom of the DI system found in a lot of modern cars.

I got some time off for the holiday which means times to work on cars. I think I'm going to score one of these myself.

I see I need to research the Direct Injection engine and how to maintain that girl.
Thanks for the tip.
