Has anyone installed an oil catch can? If so, where did you locate it? Pictures please.

I installed the Greddy one; will take a pic and post it for ya. I took out the inlet that sits above the radiator (the inlet for the stock intake) and bolted the can there sideways (the Greddy will work vertical or horizontal).

 

Here's mine:

I looked at your pic. I give up, what is a catch can and
what is it used for?

I believe it goes in between the engine breather valve and the intake, to avoid sucking oil into the intake. They are more widely used on forced induction vehicles.

sorry about the lateness, I meant to post this earlier. I am not really happy with the location of mine (and to be honest, I don't think it does anything for my car; F/I would probably really need one of these), but here 'tis
