Some have baffles, but they all do the same thing (trap excess oil). The ARC unit is nice because it is bolt on and has a unique shape which fits perfectly. It also has a drain which is cool.

If you want a really in-expensive unit, get a can and put two plastic hoses through it, lol. It sounds silly but it does the same thing.

I think the nicest ones are the ARC and the Carbing one I have. Mainly because of the tiny size. I had the greddy but didn't have any room. Also, if the catch can you are using doesn't have any baffles you can put steel wool in there to act as a baffle.

ifyou want to put a breather on the passenger side, you'll need to drill out the pcvvalve. unscrew the valve from the pass. valve cover and then drill it out. then reinstall it and put a breather onit.
