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.

I don't know why you guys don't like to just run a hose to a carb [...]


Not to mention no oil mist or oily goo leaking from those cheap boxes.

This is how mine will be set up once I get it back (just waiting on the bill). I was initially concerned that the vapours would create a mess on the carbs, but my engine builder assures me piping the vents into the carbs is the way to go and there is no need for a 'puke tank'. I'll post pics as soon as I get the car home, hopefully today or tomorrow...
