    How much modding for fitting Oil Catch Tank?

    Well,

    I have a friend that can make me a stainless steel catch tank anyway i would like it to be. The price is 50£
    However i dont know if it is an easy install or if i have to mod alot of things?
    Cuz iam not in the modding mode

    So any comments of how much modding or not is required for fitting a catch tank?
    And do i need does hoses that mark and others use or can i use plain rubber hoses?

    I think you can use rubber or silicon hosing, doesn't have to be braided as long as its oil proof.

      Oil proof silicone hosing is generally referred to as 'flourosilicone' as it has a special oil resistant liner. This is what Samco make our turbo hose kits from - as there is always some oil vapour circulating in a stock PCV system.

      Normal silicone rubber gets attacked by oil, so don't use that for this application.
