With the pipes routed under the air intake is it going to catch any oil??

I don't know what the ins and out benefits are for oil catch tanks are so it might be a silly question

Yeah I just noticed that however I've been told the oil will be blown through the pipes from the crankcase its not going to get trapped under the intake area.

You will notice from that link that the catch can goes in the path between the PCV valve and the intake manifold. FYI it's the 3" long pipe just above the alternator on a K20a. Do some research and make your own decision as to where to hook it up but I recommend that you hook it up replacing the PCV valve hose.

Cheers.

I've found a thread on EPHatch where a guy has installed his catch can via that method.

What is the benefit of feeding it from the oil seperator over the crankcase breather?
Also why do some people feed it to the atmosphere not back into the intake manifold/Induction?
All I know its bad for the environment.

Well after a bit research it seems that either way it still collects oil.

I've now lowered the level of the catch can allowing oil to flow easily into the can and removed the pipe to the intake so that its vented to the atmosphere this way I dont get any carbon build up in the intake manifold after a long period of time.
