Pretty sure i read somewhere that some years of the 3rd gens can run catch cans? I have an 05 2500 with Hemi, just wondering if there are any out there?

I'm not entirely sure what changes on newer engines that made catch cans useful, but unless I understood wrong, the 'first' generation 'new' Hemi's don't need them.

Could be ENTIRELY wrong, wouldn't be surprised at all if I was.

I believe the early hemi's use an internal PCV
There is a breather hose that a catch can could be run on but it doesn't catch nearly as much as a can on a 4th gen

Just run a small line with an oil breather if you do not want the crankcase backfeeding into the intake.

Yeah, thats probably what I'll do. I know when I took my factory intake off it had a good amount of "crap" in it.
