I have a Jazz one in the garage I was going to use as a catch can, it's different design, and it looked white in the pic but it's actually tan so I didn't use it. But the construction is great, very sturdy. I like that one, mine looks like this:
Check out the 2 quart. It could be used as a SOHN reservoir and catch can.

Yea I was just thinking since most of our carbon buildup is due to shitty fuel and our only line of defense is plastic mesh... well yea you get the idea.
No worries, we will forge them ourselves.
I hope that works well so I can copy you. Did you get the mount kit too?

catch can needs vacum--at least mine does. Its also there to vent the crankcase.?
Why do you want an inline fuel filter--the pump has a good one--any additional one will just cause a loss of a little fuel pressure.
heavy enough pre mix can mess up a fuel filter.--this i know.....
wish there was an ethanol filter!
Have yall tried true gas in your car? It does make a difference in how smooth it runs and the gas milage.
