   Got a BMC DIA filter to fit to the VTS.
   Like this http://www.bmcairfilters.com/dia-dir..._pr3_15_1.aspx
   
   Oil breather pipe coming off near rocker cover went into original filter housing but apart from a catch tank what should I do with the breather pipe. Seem to remember you seeing someone had a little filter on the end of theirs?
   
   Will it be ok left as it is for a few days?
   
   TIA

   The breather should not be left without any filter,i would use a filter for a few days and then connect it to a proper oil catch tank,using only a filter it's not the proper way to do it,it will let gases out and possibly oil all over the engine bay.
