Saw a really cool catch can on a guy's GT 350 at the Mustang Roundup in September ( www.racemph.com ) and it looked super factory. It was not a JLT, but was also black and had a really easy system to drain. Any other brands out there folks can recommend , as the JLT looks decent , but this one was even more stock looking.
 
You're probably thinking of the Bobs. Nice piece but I think the drain bit is overrated. You probably only need the passenger side.

Good to be back and am looking forward to the GT350. Sold two recently and brought one up to our warehouse and figured I might have a problem in the future. When riding in an R , I had a helmet on, and though she sounded great, the aural sense of the three five oh unfettered by a Snell approved device enabled me to realize , the sound of the Blue Oval beast was analgous to auditory Viagra. I think my ears turned pink and I got flushed -- what a frigging rush and I never went over 4000 rpms.

I am in love and my maiden is 4 months out......oh hurry you mail order bride , daddy is waiting!!!

I run the Ford Performance cans which are very nice and fit perfectly. Both are needed on these cars. I have both on my '16 GT and filled the DRIVERS side container when we were at Indianapolis and set off a smoke show on pit road when the overflow got sucked into the air intake tube. Thought I had blown the engine but compression and leak down are perfect. I think the high g loading of the mostly clockwise/high speed Indy course caused the oil to fill the cam cover, I also may have had it overfilled running above the to line on the dipstick. Cleaned it up and went to Watkins Glen the next two days. At the Glen there was only a skim on the bottom of both cans.

I put Ford Performance ones on my GT350. They look very stock. I just remove the tops and use a syringe to drain the contents. I just removed 50cc of oil from my passenger side one yesterday. This is in about 2000 miles. The drivers side was wet, but no measurable oil.

I run only the passenger side JLT and have about 4300mi on it now with 2 track weekends. I have emptied the container twice at about 2000mi and at 4300mi and only got about a tablespoon and half worth or oil out each time. I really like the JLT because of the simplicity of the unit...nothing to bolt to anything with it.

I have a Moroso catch can that I originally bought for my 2011 Mustang GT. I also ran it on my 2014 GT500. While it came with a drain, when I was troubleshooting an air leak on the GT I sealed it up. It wasn't the culprit, but I never bothered with putting it back on - it's really easy to just unscrew the bottom of the housing and clean it out.

When I looked at putting it on my GT350, the bracket just didn't work, so I bought the two FP pieces and put them on. The driver's side piece is still dry after a bunch of track time, but I do get about an ounce or so every thousand miles on the passenger's side.

I'm tempted to buy or fabricate a new bracket for the Moroso and give it a try this coming year. One of the things I didn't like about the Moroso kit initially was that the rubber hoses suck flat when they get hot. However, I like simple and practical solutions, so instead of going to some exotic braided hose, I just bought some Goodyear fuel hose in the right size and a long soft steel coil spring that's 1/2" outer diameter. With the spring slipped inside the hose, it doesn't suck flat, and the Goodyear hose is rated for the temperature and hydrocarbon vapor in the blowby gas. I think I paid about $20 for 50' of GY hose, so I'll never run out, even if I have to replace it once in a while. It's been good so far, though. Even the heat from the GT500 on the track didn't seem to bother the hose.
