Oil Tank 1.5gal 16an Dual Return w/ Catch Can

The Peterson Fluid Oil Tank 1.5 gallon 16 AN dual return with catch can (Part No. 08-0784-CC) is a dry sump reservoir tank engineered for high-performance drag racing and competition applications. This 1.5-gallon aluminum oil tank combines primary storage with an integrated catch can function, allowing builders to consolidate reservoir and oil recovery into a single compact unit while maintaining efficient cooling and circulation through dual return lines.

The tank features a 16 AN male inlet connection and 12 AN male outlet fittings, enabling direct integration into custom and OEM dry sump systems without adapter complexity. The aluminum construction provides excellent thermal conductivity for oil temperature management—critical in sustained high-RPM racing where oil viscosity stability directly affects engine protection. Dual return lines distribute coolant flow efficiently, reducing hot spots and extending fluid life during intense competition. The design also accommodates a breather tank function and includes provisions for optional heater ports, supporting both cold-weather startup and thermal management across variable race conditions.

This tank is purpose-built for drag racing teams, circle track competitors, and engine builders who demand compact, integrated oil storage without sacrificing cooling performance. The catch can capability captures crankcase vapors and blowby oil, preventing atmospheric contamination of the primary oil supply and reducing the need for secondary catch-can equipment. Dimensions of 13.65 × 12.55 × 21 inches allow flexible mounting in constrained engine bays while delivering the volume required for multi-pass competition events.
