Oil catch cans.

Anyone who has aftermarket catch tanks/cans please post pictures of your mounting points. I am planning on ordering the cusco catch can in the next few days. I believe it comes with it's own mounting bracket. Does anyone have pictures of the cusco one as well??
Thanks.

Garfinkle made Roterbrain one, the rear of the 4inch tube is a catch can , the front of the tube holds 2 cycle oil for the oil metering pump. The unit is bolted where the air pump was. The filler cap is from the oil fill tube off a first gen, so the screw on caps match .One unit ,two problems solved, in one space .

They can be a pain in the ****, since you have to crawl underneath the car after 10 laps to drain the damned thing. From a convenience standpoint, it's better to leave the oil ventillation system the way it is (PCV to intake when motor is @ vacuum to atmospheric pressure; from filler neck to primary turbo when motor is under boost pressure). I converted mine back to stock oil ventilation, cuz I got sick of draining the catch can. I figure there's no real harm in oiling the turbo and motor...it's the poor man's oil metering afterall (according to DamonB LOL )

I have a generic one I bought from a local performance shop. Its the same kind summit racing sells. It is mounted to the 10mm bolt in the center of the radiator. My radiator sits uprightbecause of my greddy front mount though.
