Oil catch can
I am going to install an oil catch can on my car. I can't seem to find a goof mounting spot on the inside of the fender. Will it work in the open space in front of the wheel? I am questing this because it is quite a run for the hoses.
TIA Chris

Re: Oil catch can
Thanks Dynomite, but the can I have is too wide to fit in that location. Just wondering if it will work a little farther away from the engine.

Re: Oil catch can
Look.at this picture and you will see where I mounted mine in front of the asr cover. Ignore the 17C on the plenum :-)

Re: Oil catch can
Looks like I'm good to go under the headlight. Thanks all!

Re: Oil catch can
I'm still highly in favor of a 'catch can', but I've seen no one's setup that has any manner of cycling the oil BACK to the CC (or the dirt, or SOMEwhere), with some sort of check valve integrated 'thereinto'......
After a few trips to the grocery store, a full catch can don't catch - CAN it?
