I was just wondering what catch cans you guys would recomend? My engines blow by is getting pretty messy as my valve cover is constantly covered in oil and saturates my timing belt and has caused it jump time. I was told a catch can or two would help with the pressures of the case.
 
How are these as far as seperating oil and relieving pressures? I was told to stay away fromt he cheap ebay ones. You have a link to them possibly?
 
You can't screw up a catch-can design, it's not even mechanical, it is just an empty aluminum can with some fittings and a filter if it is vented. eBay or not eBay, it really doesn't matter. What matters is how you run it, and calan has a great tech article on the PCV system that shows you the most optimal way to do so.

Alright. I just read the article posted on the forums about catch cans and the stock pcv system and it basically said stay away from cheap eBay systems as they will not help. But I really care about relieving the pressure more than anything.
