Would a Catch Can be a must on a 5.7 with 100/K?

Never too late, however the earlier the better. When you see the crap that has been recycled thru you're motor for the last 100k you'll wish you'd done it sooner.

Thanks guys have been reading about people installing them on here.
Wondering if I missed the boat at 100/k already.

I did this exact thing. Bought the truck with 100k. And immediately started changing fluids. But I added a catch can first.

Be sure to switch out the PCV valve if not done already.

And take off the throttle body for a good cleaning. TRUST me when I say it needs it. My **** was CAKED with crud.
