The third-generation Chevrolet Silverado, offered with both the 5.3L and 6.2L LS engines, delivers impressive performance, but these engines also come with a common issue—carbon buildup. Like many modern engines, they feature direct injection, which provides efficient combustion and fuel savings. However, it can also allow oil and carbon deposits from blow-by gases to build up on the intake valves. Over time, this buildup can restrict airflow and prevent the valves from closing properly, leading to reduced engine performance.
The best solution to this issue is prevention, and that’s where the Mishimoto Chevrolet/GMC 1500 direct-fit catch can kit comes in. This catch can kit is designed to intercept blow-by gases before they reach your intake system, trapping oil, fuel, and water vapors inside the can. Inside, air turbulators and baffles work to separate harmful contaminants from the crankcase gases, allowing them to be safely collected and drained during routine oil changes.
By preventing these contaminants from reaching your intake, the Mishimoto catch can kit helps reduce carbon buildup, maintaining better airflow, and preventing oil fouling that can degrade engine lubrication. A sintered bronze filter provides additional protection by removing any remaining carbon particles, ensuring that only clean air circulates back into your intake system.
This catch can kit is a complete, bolt-on solution, designed for easy installation on Chevrolet/GMC 1500 trucks. Like all Mishimoto products, it’s backed by our Lifetime Warranty for long-lasting performance and peace of mind.
