Question

going to fit a helix oil catch can and was wondering what is the best way and how to do it? i asked bob rawl what to do with it and he said "connect the crank and cylinder head breathers together then feed into the tank, leave the PCV still connected in place and blank off the two open inlets to the air intake pipe." but i don't know what that all means and he hasn't came back to me yet to explain in a little bit more detail. can anyone help me out here????

If you look on the top of each cylinder head there is a pipe that gest feed back into the inlet pipe the same with one coming from the crackcase. You need to t-piece these together then feed this into the catch tank.
