Now that I think of it that was about 600 miles worth.

Just curious; as compared to how much oil is collected in these from forced induction, how much oil could one expect to catch on a naturally aspirated engine?

I'm still debating on which to get. I like that the JLT comes with modified PCV lines, but I don't see an option for the 4.0L V6. Hmm...

I have a modified steeda unit on my m90. Collects plenty of goop. Worked very good when I was NA as well.

I have the JLT, I put it on for about 2 weeks N/A then had to modify it for the blower which was very easy to do, although I'm not sure how its run on the V6. FWIW its a nice unit easy to unscrew and drain, collects quite a bit. The black one hides away nice for me

Nick, thats why I went with the UPR! It comes with hoses too just not a direct fit, its not a big deal though!

I ultimately decided on the UPR at the last minute as well. It was the only system I came across that really used 5/8 hose which is the perfect size for me to fit the check valve into the system.

i went from a small one like the Steeda, to a Moroso, now i have breathers
i just like the look of the breathers best.
you do have to wipe up some blowby every once in a while.
