I came across this RACOR product closed crankcase vent & oil separator canister/filter/valved this setup I'm guessing eliminates the CDV on the 6.5 while eliminating the oil problems in aftercooler.

Next is the open type which would use the CDV and eliminate oil in intake system.

When I e-mailed them a few months ago I was told thier smallest colsed one would be the best choice but that the size might be a bit big to fit under our hoods. Still I think it will be a good idea. An y chance of a Diesel Page discount?

I'm making a cardboard mockup of the unit to see if it can be somehow installed under hood, a bracket may help to install it between the driverside battery and the hydro boost, worst case the frame rail under driver side.

They open from the bottom for servicing the filter.

I think a group buy would be something to work on after the install issue is figured out.

I was looking at moving it to mount off the brace for the air intake or all the way over to the fender by the battery.

I would be very interested in a group buy. I know I have plenty of room for one under my hood.
