Planning on mounting this catch can remotely, does the pressure from the motor blow or suck?

I don't know if the filter on the tank is to keep vapor out of the motor bay or to keep from sucking dirt into the breather lines.

I only need to run lines from each head, the oil fill tower, and then to the tank.

You wont be happy with that setup. Oil escapes OUT of that type of filter then it leaves a fine mist in the engine compartment that dirt will stick too. I semi know where you are headed with this race car... build/buy a large breather box for the trunk and run ALL your lines into it with a K+N setup. This way it only oils the trunk which is easier to clean than the engine compartment.

The back trunk is exactly where I am mounting the tank.

So your reccomending a larger catch tank with a K&N? Isn't that kind of what I got?
