you could always use one that looks more like a catch can instead of the cheap plastic one that comes stock.

Correct me if I am wrong, but shouldn't the reservoir be at the same level or above the radiator? For some reason I remember someone telling me this once.

I thought so too.. but I seen some that were lower but just a bit closer.. considering the way I have it should be ok, but Ill just have to keep an eye on the temperature and make sure It doesnt get hot..

worse comes to worst, ill pull over and mount it the way honda had it...
