I used this one and it works great. I got the idea from someone in the carb form but can't remember who.

Yes, but does it have a baffle ?

I used one like above, but in aluminum.

sorry to hijack, but how would you route the plumbing for this?

I have a Breather in my passenger side valve cover. I bought a electric vacuum pump to pull off driver side valve cover where PCV goes. Would I put can in between pump and and valve cover or after pump?

The can I have, you'd remove the filter off the top and hook vacuum pump there with hose/s ran to motor .... it is baffled

Does that mean you don't need to run a baffled can with a pump?

I was planning on running valve cover to inlet side of pump --->outlet of pump to can

A baffled can will separate the air/oil mist.

Can should be between pump and motor IMO.....I don't run a pump and can is vented to atmosphere.(no vacuum line to motor either)
