Not that it's really necessary, but I'm surprised I've never seen a catch can come out with a sight tube similar to below:



It's just a neat novelty really, but it would show you the oil level in the can.... I'm sure most people get the idea of this, but if you don't know, the tube will fill up to the appx the same level of fluid inside the tank/can, etc, to show the fluid level.

I think I've seen some pics of some ebay cheapos with sight tubes here on the forums, but never a higher quality can, IIRC.

Apex Chase, here's a nice option to your can... Cheap to produce, everyone will want one.

The IPF supercharger kit's can has that feature. Too bad it doesn't help much due to the mounting position. Once you're down there you might as well empty the thing anyway. It's buried behind the front bumper and in front of the fender liner on the passenger side.
