im gauging what i need first, you may be able to help as it happens if youve got an RB26!!

Im not 100% sure where the correct take off for the catch tank would be...or if there is multiple ones (top of the cam covers for example)..

I also have nice red anodised billet aluminium catchtanks that go quite well with the rocker cover colour :-D
