that smell was the vapor that comes out of your crankcase

Another option for you. Requires a transition from the 1/2" or 3/4" hose coming off the AOS (can't remember exact size) to a 3/8" on the catch can but it's a nice unit. I've had mine in for a season and can't believe the amount of oil vapor/condensation it collects.

Wow...looks very nice. Can you share details? Where does it fit, how does it actually filter & how is it drained?

Thought I'd step back into this for an update...I emailed "Mr. Saiku" and ordered one of his catch cans. Should be here early next week. Thanks for all the replys on the subject. Really appreciate the wealth of info on the list.
If anyones interested I'm sellng the LR unit. I've placed it on ebay, but if a lister's looking for one I'll let it go cheap.
