I use this and it works very well. Do not discontinue use of your PCV valve, simply route it through the catch can. The volume in the catch can will separate the oil from the mist and then you will be returning clean air to the engine.

I am also using it quite sucessfully. I made a bracket to hold it to the head and used braided lines. It works well and looks good.

What model number are you considering? I looked through their web site and didn't see anything.
