    Just a note on the condensation,

    my catch can gets HEAPS of condensation
    I emptied it yesterday
    and HEAPS of shit came out.
    White shit.. I wouldn't put that back in my sump
    (even though most of what's in the sump ends up on the ground when I drive it anyway

    In addition to that one, the design at the top of the page would end up with the same smoky problem, because you're still pressurizing the crank case, as there's no where for the air to go!

    Not shown on the picture, but he does say there is an outlet for the breather. My view, don't drain it back to the sump. If you have problems with the head filling with oil address that with a drain separate to your breather system. As others have said the stuff coming out your breathers is not high quality oil, keep it out of the engine at all costs. And only plumb back the breather to the intake if you are legally required to.
