I went to searching for catch cans and eventually ended up at YouTube. This guy sounds like he knows what he's talking about to me (which doesn't say a whole lot) but, he answers the question of vented or non vented cans. You chose the correct path with your 14, he says it has to be a closed system. He also mentions the importance of having a well designed can, with quality baffles and the ability for separation, which will reduce buildup by approximately 95%. He also goes into some other way to prevent what happen to your motor, like what to look for in oil selection. Check it out!
