+2 on the catch can.
ESPECIALLY if you're using a non-OEM part. Granted, mine sucks a lot of oil for being OEM..

Well there aren't too many dealers close by. This new PVC valve should work. But that catch can can be added later. There's already more than 10 parts that need to be put on and some fixed.

I'm orderin that ntk o2 sensor that you posted dodge dude. I'll go ahead and order it tomorrow from rockauto since its only $35.

But would that sensor you did post, hook up to my magnaflow high flow cat I'm putting on?

Well I'm not sure if I can get mopar specific around here. I can get another pcv valve if I absolute have to if this one wont work.

It'll be around 14 total for valve and grommet from a semi dodge dealership.

Could I just get them off rockauto?
