    This is my first attempt at doing a video for DIY. I know it is bad quality but hope it can improve as my video skill improve.

    Appreciate any input on how I could improve.

    Please comment, share and like.

    Well, the video itself was okay, video quality is very good. Skip the music though.
    You didn't show the OCC installation. You showed it already installed.
    You just showed removal and installation of the intake manifold. You could have just showed the OCC and
    how you routed the lines.
    Look at your header: Oil Catch Can "installation" video.

    I know it's a pain to do the work and video when it's just you. Even with tripods it's a task!
    The camera has very good image stabilization and you have a steady hand. Even at 2x speed it
    looked pretty smooth! Maybe rename the header?

    Again, the overall video was very good!

    Thanks for your kind words.

    I actually already did the installation prior to getting the action cam. And removing the OCC is a bit hassle. I figured it is a straighforward thing on the OCC installation side. The tough part is getting the intake manifold removed.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I will probably add in the OCC installation part later. Will also do a follow-up video on the OCC to see how much oil it catch after 6 months or 1 year.

    With the OCC mounted using a bracket what is the purpose of the band clamp?

    It's for double protection because the 2 screws are barely holding the can. They were a bit short.
