So... is there any point in an oil catch can for a N.A. 5S-FE? Someone told me I should run one between my PCV valve and my intake manifold to keep oil out. Is that true? Will it work? I do get some oil that goes up into the intake manifold.

Just a stupid question because I don't know much about a lot of aftermarket things aside from suspension, tires, exhaust and lighting lol.

No need for a catch can on a NA, or even a turbo unless its fairly modified.
