Thanks for the suggestions on the catch tank location.

The area behind the left rear wheel well in the boot is pretty open and 
sounds like it would work for coolant.
Still looking for something for an oil catch. I think the oil would pool 
in the line if the catch tank was back in the boot.

Attached are two photo's of the space I have to work with. Note there is 
no battery tray in the dash panel. Max height including the breather 
can't go beyond 7".
Those reading from the list will not see the photo's.

Thanks in Advance
