Default new breather/ oil catch can setup

i figured it was time to get this thing built as i have had the parts laying around for a bit.
i planed n running 5 -10 AN lines originally but cut it down to 3. i think it will be just fine with the 3 -10 AN lines.



it passed the water test, cant ask for alot more then that



im welding on a 30amp breaker so i have to pre heat so i can weld @ 110 amps instead of 180+

had to make a custom short back cap to get in the tight spaces.

you can see that i added a triangle to the end of the breather that will be a PS reservoir.

more preheating with my custom torch holder.





i almost forgot the VCs

NIce work..you have that thing baffled so nicely that you could almost put some intake vacuum to that tank to help pull the oil to the tank better...or is that a bad idea???
