Oil catch can question...

Does a catch can HAVE to be perfectly level to work properly? I'm having some space issues under my hood and the only place that i can fit it , it will be on a 15 degree angle.

Depends on the style. You want it orientated so that the oil falls to the bottom, not flows back through the outlet hose.

the inlet and outlets are both on top so i would think it would be ok to sit at a slight angle but thats just me

That's fine, but obviously the capacity will be reduced that much.
