Build Your Own Oil Separator Setup For Nearly Any Engine Bay
Not every turbo or supercharged build has a plug and play oil separator kit available, and that is exactly what this base kit is for. It gives you the same billet aluminum canister J&L uses in its vehicle specific kits, along with a straight bracket, an angled bracket, and six fittings so you can adapt the separator to whatever routing your PCV system needs. If you are running a custom intake, a supercharged Bullitt, or a turbocharged GT500, this kit hands you the core hardware and lets you finish the install your way.
Key Features
- Solid billet aluminum canister with a 3 oz fluid capacity
- Black anodized finish for corrosion resistance
- Fine mesh stainless steel screen for vapor filtration
- Knurled tank base for tool free draining
- O-ring sealed canister to prevent leaks
- Includes one angled bracket and one straight bracket for flexible mounting

FAQ
What is the 3001-B?The 3001-B is a universal J&L oil separator base kit with a black anodized 3 oz billet canister, two mounting brackets, and six fittings for building a custom PCV catch can setup.
Will this kit fit my specific vehicle?It is designed as a universal build-it-yourself kit rather than a vehicle specific plug and play kit, so it works with most engine bays but requires you to supply your own hose and confirm fitting compatibility.
Does this kit include hose?No, hose is not included. You will need to source hose sized to match the fittings included or your own PCV routing.
What fittings come with this kit?The kit includes two straight glass filled nylon fittings and four 90 degree elbow fittings in two different ID sizes, giving you options depending on your PCV hose diameter.
How much oil does the canister hold?The canister holds 3 oz of fluid before needing to be drained, and most owners see 3,500 to 4,000 miles between draining under normal driving conditions.
Is this oil separator legal in California?No, this product is not CARB exempt and is not legal for sale or use in California or any other state requiring a CA Executive Order number for emissions related parts.
Does installing this oil separator void my factory warranty?No. Under the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act, the vehicle manufacturer must prove the separator directly caused a failure before denying warranty coverage.
Can I use both brackets included in this kit?Yes, the angled and straight brackets are both included so you can choose whichever mounting orientation best fits your available space.
How do I clean the filter inside the canister?Spray a degreaser or solvent through the filter and let it air dry, cleaning it roughly every 10,000 miles for consistent filtration performance.
Install Instructions
- Determine the best mounting location in your engine bay based on available PCV routing.
- Select either the angled or straight bracket depending on your mounting orientation.
- Attach the bracket to the oil separator canister using the two included screws.
- Choose the fittings from the included set that match your PCV hose diameter and NPT connection needs.
- Thread the selected fittings into the canister ports.
- Mount the bracket to a secure point in the engine bay using your own hardware.
- Connect your own hose between the canister fittings and the PCV valve and intake manifold connections.
- Secure all hose clamps, then start the engine and check every connection for leaks.
