Description
The Mishimoto MMBCC-RAM-09PBE2 is a direct-fit, baffled oil catch can kit engineered specifically for the 5.7L V8 found in Ram 1500 trucks. After testing revealed that a standard 2oz can filled with blow-by in under 1000 miles, Mishimoto scaled up to a 7.5 oz billet aluminum can so this Hemi-powered platform gets a catch can sized for real-world use rather than a token accessory. It’s a purpose-built engine component, not a generic add-on, designed to bolt cleanly into the engine bay of this specific truck.
As one of the more overlooked car engine parts, an oil catch can plays an outsized role in keeping the internals of a car engine clean. By intercepting crankcase blow-by before it reaches the intake tract, this Mishimoto kit helps protect components of an automobile engine like the valves and intake system from oil residue and carbon buildup, which in turn can extend the interval between valve servicing. The 7.5 oz can uses internal baffling, air diverters, and a 50-micron bronze filter to separate oil from vapor, so oil stays out of the intake and away from the valves. For anyone researching parts of a car engine that actually reduce maintenance headaches, this catch can addresses a real weak point in the 5.7L Hemi’s design.
