Oil catch can install
I have seen several ways to install catch cans. In looking at your kit is seems like you plan to keep the factory breather can and install the catch can as a secondary system. Is this assumption correct? I had planned to eliminate the factory can and install the breather/can as a stand alone system, using the block fittings. I do not have plans to use the drain back feature. The valve cover would have a filter installed. Please advise as to any problems and why? One of the sources for this is theoldone.com (aka endyne).

There are two main types of systems to control oil.
Catch can . and breather can.
Most cases the catch can will be a close system that plumbs between the valve cover and the intake tube.
The breather can replaces the black box, the can needs to be mounted high up in engine bay. The top can either be filtered to the open air or run through a PCV to the intake mainfold. A dran from the bottom can be T 'd into the one of the feeds lines.
The one Endyn sells is the breather style which is a better option, for high boost sets ups I would go with both.
