For racing it is a must but seeing what gets deposited into the tank I would put it on a Rover V8 car even if it wasn't raced for the sake of the induction system.

I went for the more economical breather bottle version that was available from 'The Warehouse'[:D]

But could not bring myself to show you all the type of vile discussing mess that ends up inside these catch tanks[:0]

Beans, I can understand why you may not wish to put an oil catcher can back in your car, after the restoration. It would be like sticking long false eye lashes on a beautiful woman.

There is an oil catch tank in the DHC, I only changed the old brake fluid bottle for a nice shiny alloy catch tank [8D]
