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

[Allan Stults]

Wow!  Dave's video is phenomenal.  His effort in restoring the TR 3 is
the mark of an artist.  I've got a '62 TR 3 B and I'm goin' out to the
garage right now to get to work.  Well done, Dave!

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.

added a TR4 style crankcase vent pipe.

which is oil now is dripping off the bottom of the car.

adding a TR4 style crankcase vent tube and then plumbed in a oil catch
tank? If so, please enlighten me!
