Yes, I’ve seen numerous catch cans, really have not settled on any particular one, just getting some opinions, they put me in mind of a water separator.
There are so many options, from the valve cover to a catch can, as pictured.
Then just seen the one going to a catch can out into the intake, seems might improve performance?

Nice! So, going from the valve cover over to catch can with a filter up top be functional?

So, your coming off crank case from governor hole? Then through the catch can into the air intake? Using a PCV valve?

I follow several threads on this subject. Thinking a simple hose to a vented catch can would suffice, not a racing set up, just improved intake and exhaust.
I found this in a thread and thinking is this really necessary for a mostly factory build?

No PCV though I suppose there could be one, but routing the engine vapor directly into the intake circuit is clean and tidy.

I have never seen a system as this just recently realized a can would be beneficial, but didn’t take it a step further. Now I feel compelled to do the same! Why did you route your lines this way, to equalize pressure?

My personal spoke choice is Saphim. Wheelsmith and DT also make good spokes. A #14 Saphim spoke is stronger than a #10 department store spoke.
Merv’s assured me these were extremely durable. I originally asked about set of #12 industrial. I will get the manufacturer’s name.
