I drained about a litre out of it. The filter on the top has hardly any oil in the gauze so I'm thinking my baffle design works very well for condensing the oil mist.

I'm going to put a baffle inside the valley plate to hopefully condense some of the oil mist before it goes to the catch can. I'm also going to weld an AN#6 fitting onto the bottom of the front timing cover and connect it to the bottom of the catch can. This will have a one way check valve in it to let the oil drain down to the sump but not up to the catch can.

Cheers
