Based on how well this thing works, i thought i would share it you y'all, and encourage you to use one as well.
24vRiviera used to have bad issues blowing oil out of his front timing cover breather. He added 3 ports to the valve cover and routed the breather to this as well.

you can see it attached here to his intercooler pipe on the driver's side.

the tubes directly dump into stainless screens found in the oil field

the inside was then packed pretty tightly with bronze wool (couldn't find stainless wool on short notice, and this wont rust either)
after that the bottom was welded on, and a baffled front was added.

tubes were welded to the side and brackets on bottom for him to clamp to the intercooler pipe.
(they were in the wrong spot, hence the tilt to the outside, he did not specify location, so i centered them on the can)

you will notice the large vent in the bottom to vent gasses without a filter
the bottom is canted to help with drainage.


ok, i have tried 6 different ways to get these pics to post, i cannot for the life of me figure it out.

Apparently. Last time i copied em into the little mountain box and it worked great. Not so much this time.
 
Not yet. It does have a 1/4" not tapped into the bottom with a drain cock in it now. It can if desired.
 
Wanna explain everything going on here with this thing? Is this a screen filtered slobber box?
 
Yes.

If you post into the img box, you have to delete the first part of the link text....
