The bowl is plastic and the WARNING says do not use organic thiners. Nothing about syn. oil mentioned. The filter looks rather solid to me ans is attached around a plastic tube with a sort of amrella under it, so you better suck 120psi neg. vacuum to suck that thing in.

 

Plastic? That doesn't make me feel any better

 

I am using it for almost 2 years and had no problems. The filter element is made of small metall balls sinthered together. It is very solid.
And it works!

 

Hmm, all the ones I've seen are glass and use a cotton looking filter.

Which one are you using?

 

Go to Home Depot; they have a good one there.

 

So i am doing my oil change as usual and I just forget that I installed the stupid KV. so when I took out the drain plug the oil is not gushing out as it normally does. So im like "Damn, I thought my oil level was ok, I guess im very low"

So then I regain control of my brain and realize that the KV has the crankcase airtight So i just popped the dipstick out...

 

You are joking right?

 

The sad thing here is that i'm not. I did forget for a long minute that I had the vents installed. So I panicked for a whole minute

 

Man that ghetto OCC is just about the cleanest install I have ever seen. I wanted to buy the same but was thinking that noone might run such a huge SOAB under his hood LOL...I got the smaller one.

 

Now that my car is up and running, today was the first day I put about 100 miles on her with the Krank Vents and made an interesting observation. Since the Krank Vents create such a strong vacuum through the PCV line you may want to run some type of catch tank.

Here is my home made catch can which has about 1/4" of oil after a 100mi drive. It had about 1/16" when I started.



This was all highway miles below boost 100% of the time.
