I had very good luck on pricing and parts when I did my oil cooler setup.

Thanks Travis.
These are steel, but not coated. Will be easy to weld, and look very good.
The price will go up a bit do the the price of all the fittings, but not much.
Being able to accomodate 1/2" hose would be good. Love the design. I would personally stick to npt ports as fittings are cheap and easy to come by but can always get adapters I guess.

The one pictured was not purged, and there is no sugaring on the inside. If you hve the amperage turned down, you will not burn through...ever. So the inside is nice an clean.
I back purge all the exhaust stuff on the turbo kits, because here I need good penetration, and a solid weld all around. That is why I say that you will never see my exhaust welds crack.

Just had been thinking about goign to a 3" exhaust and there arent allot of options for 2.5 - 3" TP's or even just straight 3" for that matter.

Well, I finally got around to mounting this catch can. It seems that most of the catch cans out there get mounted somwhwere in the front of the engine or on top of the radiator shroud. It makes sense, as this is the half way point between the most common valve cover vents. I followed suit.
Rather simple bracket welded on:
Mounted:



These are 3/8" NPT fittings and again there is 4 of them for this specific application. If this goes in to production there will be two ports with a breather on top or something like that.
