Open Oil Breather System - Catch Can Location
 
Is anyone using the breather type catch can system on a Superformance and if so, where is the unit or units located? Pictures would be great! My intentions is to plumb per Cobra Valley's recommendations using two catch cans one for each valve cover. I know some are going to ask why. I had a single breather on a valve cover and an oil cap on the other when I first installed the new motor. Oil was appearing around the breather and the dipstick had popped up. Now I have a closed loop system using pcv from one valve cover to the open plenum of the intake or at base of carb. The other valve cover has a 3/4" elbow fitting with a 3/4" hose to the underside of the base for the air cleaner. I also have a spring to hold the dip stick in position. Everything appears to be clean and I do have a few more miles on the motor. I'm concerned there may be oil mist or vapor entering into the motor which could burn to the valves, etc. With my car being a lower vacuum motor the engine builder recommended the breather type catch cans.

Installing the catch cans is one of my winter projects as I also intend to reroute my fuel line, install a black roll bar, wrap the headers for heat reduction, possible under dash lights to illuminate interior to help with the buckling up in dark locations. I would love to do a cold air induction system if anyone has successfully done this please let me know
