I have an Oil Catch Can on my 03' HEMI QC...

(See red can pointed at)

Very easy to install, and bought cheap off ebay. You could really use any type of can. I mounted it to the break booster, without harming anything. Fairly simple to install: take your air vac line off of the intake tube/air box, and connect it to any of the 2 hose nipples. connect another hose from the 2nd nipple into the intake tube/air box, and you're done...

Myself, instead of a hose into the intake tube, i connected an air filter, so that the catch can would breathe, and not go into the intake system at all... This has cause some oil to spill out of the filter, thus making some mess in my engine bay. I will replace the filter instead with a longer hose, and just let it drip down on the road.

My catch can came with a drip bolt below, and I open it once every so often... usually accumulates dirty water mixed with oil. I'm glad that's not going into my engine!

As soon as I can, I will take close up pics of it for you guys!

It should be noted that yours isn't plumbed into the PCV system but it should catch any vapours that develop in foul air mode when the PCV is closed. You are still pulling the crankcase vapours directly into the intake manifold.
