[TR] Suggestions on adding a oil catch can to a TR4A

[Dave Hogye]

Dave, I used the original tube, but cut it up and modified it.  Turning it upward and I made an o-ring sealed fitting that fits tight in the block and welded the modified and turned up tube to it.  Check out my Resto video for details.  The tube can be longer then a flexible tube/hose can go to a can. The bigger the tube and hose the better.  If the tube is longer and pointing upward then the oil will run back down to the block.  Little if any will make it to the can.
