Okay, here's the deal....

I have a 2003 Landcruiser 100 series and I fitted a Provent 200 oil catch can to it back in 2010 when I bought it.

I swear by these beaut little items as they keep all the crud out of the intercooler and associated downstream pipe work.

Now that I have the Chev Silverado, I am wondering whether the Provent 200 will be up to the task?

The specs for the 200 say that they are suitable for engines up to 250kW....whereas the Chev has a maximum output of 297kW which would tend to indicate I should be fitting a Provent 400....which is good for up to 500kW.

Given that I don't drive my rigs "hard", I doubt I would ever be demanding more than 250kW from the engine anyway, so I'm thinking the best (cheapest) option is to just rip-out the 200 off the cruiser and install it on the Chev.....

Before I go ahead down this path, does anybody have any considered thoughts about this, please?

Cheers
