Default Oil Catch Can / Radiator Overflow

Hey guys,

Im trying to finish up my build, and I think this is the last stuff I need(Ive said that a few times)

Im looking for an Oil Catch Can and Radiator Overflow that match... aka, made in the same style, not necessarily by the same company.

Id like 2 oil catch cans; dirty side, and clean side.

Ive been looking and haven't really found anything I like.

The finish doesnt matter, as they will both be powdercoated gunmetal to match my other ****.

Just thought Id throw this out there, and see if someone knew, before I give up and buy whatever I find.

Thanks guys.

Okay, now I have a question worth asking....

Is it better to put in a catch can like this...

Or one with a breather, like this....

Yea, im not sure what I wanna do now.

I understand the can with the breather and no vacuum source is better... but I do not want oil spraying all over my engine bay... may be no big deal if you dont drive your car... but this will be my DD, lots of miles... ugh.
