Oil catch tank - Duratec
My Duratec currently runs the oil breathers into the filter base / inlet manifold.
I'm now looking I change this to run an oil catch tank. I've had a Google and not found and definitive answers so I'm curious on
others experience and opinion here.
So firstly should I look for a catch tank with 2 or 3 inlets / outlets? I've seen once that route both the crank breather and rocker breather
then the 3rd has a breather filter. Is this the better option or just to have 2 inlets and route both breathers to it with no filter?
Also height wise, how high should this be mounted l? Should I keep it above the rocker is roughly inline / below ok?

Looks good Thanks.
Surprised of the lack of response here, thought more people would have an opinion.
I think I'll go with the filter option, as I see no harm having the filter can cause.

Currently running Weber bodies. It's off to be remapped next week so just trying to do some jobs prior.
I was aware of the pcv valve but not looking forward to trying to get it off!
Quite like the idea of mounting it towards the front as I'm limited for space due to header tank, battery and ECU.
