I had a request for a 4 port catch can recently so I got to work and came up with this, 304SS all around:
Proper baffle inside:

All tacked up:

Bungs (3/8" NPT) welded on:

Capped off (top):

Bungs other side:

Drain side (still need to weld a bung here)

Got some nice color going here:

Still need to mount it, and it will probably go on the front timing cover. For most people a two port can would be fine, with a breather filter on top. I kow that most make them out of aluminum so I thought I try something different.

It would be a nice piece for those looking to dress up the engine bay, and I would love to build many other things of this nature. Looks and function will go a long way. So many ideas, just never enoght time.
-an fittings would be available as well. Just need to find them in steel or better yet, stainless steel.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Once I have it installed, I will take a few pictures of the final product and go on from there. Maybe I'll make 10 units and see how it goes.
Like I said, this one is a bit unique do to customers request. The final version will have one port on each side, with a breather filter on top. It is a bit labor intesive, because to get the weld colors right it takes a bit of patience.
I would estimate the price to be in the $150 range.

Black an fittings to go with it as well. I have to see what size the valve cover vents are to determine size. I found one site (Australian) that does sell stainless weld on -an fittings at $15 a pop though. Hope I can get some in US/Canada for less to keep the cost down.
