thats a cool design I think it will work really well for you. Does it go where the battery tray is?

What is that filter made out of? looks like a scotch brite or something.

bungs allow easy placement of plugs incase he doesnt want to use all the fittings. i did the same design on my catch-can (using bungs so you can plug them if need be).

i like this catch can alot. you should plug the drain and run the setup for a while and let us know if it truely works or not.

Yea its a bit on the big side , lol, but I wanted to give the oil enough time to drop to the bottom, that way there will be no oil comming out of the filter.

The two bungs on the top of the can, were simplly positioned there to make enough room for the hoses to be routed and not be so crowded.

yea im getting it done to match my strut bars and cooling plate, so its taking some time to get enough things to send to get powder coated at the same time. I can't wait till it gets back, its going to look so good.
