When Hot Meets Cold !!!!
Had to fit my Oil catch tank in the cold compartment of my engine, due to lack of space,

Hot air from the Crankcase meets the V cold air from the catch can pipes & condenses ( exactly at the point where the heat shield is / Intercooler hard pipe) Now theres no chance of this running up bank but was just concerned about the moisture, Could this be sucked back in the crankcase on overrun etc ??
Setup is now differant to the Pic added an extra hose tail ,Cam covers now go to atmosphere, Crankcase to Catch can & two pipes tee'd into 1 exit to atmos under the car, PCV valve thingy still in operation.
Thanks
