Is this catch can setup correct / safe?

[austin21]

Installed my first catch can. Read that the passenger side was the route to go on these cars. My procharger was a bit in the way but was wondering if this setup looks fine?

I think I may get a longer hose for the intake side as I had to adjust my fitting upwards in order for the hose to not kink.

Switch it to the driver side. That's where most of the oil comes through.

Dang really these hoses might not fit. I swore everything I read said passenger side had the most blow by come through

Let us know how fast oil goes in the catch can after you use it a couple times.

I would check valve it and put the hose post-blower instead of before. You can get oil buildup in that intake pipe

Yeah I changed out my intake manifold and it had a ton of buildup. So should I put it into the charge pipe before the throttle body?

I assume I will have to drill and get a fitting.

I have mine plumbed so both sides end up in the catch can which is on the passenger side. I collect a decent bit of yelllowish gunk.

1) I have basically that setup on the passenger side of my car and I dont know if it's the suction from the procharger but I still get a lot of oil pulled past that separator. My motor is buuilt/gapped for 25# and the blower is being spun pretty hard so I dont know if thats exaggerating the issue. Im going to try moving that little catch can down low so it would have to pull the oil up out of the can and through the hose to reach the blower and see if it helps.

2) on mine I also have a little catch can on the driver side - I took the stock pcv routing from the driver side cover to the intake manifold I just added the catch can and a one way check valve. Im not familiar the layout of the older cobras though
