The Australian Motorsport regs ask for a 3L catch can with a breather on track events which is scrutineered. I do have a can but it's prob around 1L. I could have two 1.5L cans maybe and run a hose from each rocker cover? Any advice or has done it before, or where to put it, or them? Cheers, Warren.

this is the LEMB motorsport car. you can see the breather catch tanks either side of the rear window.

I made a system that continually purges a single 1L catch tank. Simple tube that sits alongside the front crankshaft counterweight as it gets passed by the counterweight and draws any oil from the tank back into the oil pan. On dry sump system the tube can be fitted to the now redundant pickup lines & Filter pad.
Thanks but cage and stop backs use that space.this is the LEMB motorsport car. you can see the breather catch tanks either side of the rear window.

Asking Motorsport Australia if 2 x 1.5L tanks, either side might work, Holinger don't have a trans fluid, or a pump for that matter too!
Whatever you built, use a catch can that is tall in shape, because oil/water will move during accelaration and the braking and the one that you show on your photo have all the chances to overflow.
For the breather, put a small protective plate underneeth to avoid massive quantities of fluide to be extracted. The best is on the top middle of the cover or on the top back, because oil will move more during breaking than during acceleration.
Be also carefull to put a continous slope toward the catch can or reverse but avoid to make a lower point between catch can and cover.
