Default 2WD custom breather setup

I am building a car using a 2wd engine which will be mildly tuned. I don't really have room in the engine bay to run a separate breather tank like the ones you get in the kits available. I am looking at building a new breather box that looks very similar to the the original kidney box. It would sit in the same location, have a return to the sump and a small breather air filter on the top.

Are there any reason why this wouldn't work ?

Thanks in advance

Andy...

Why dont you just buy a WRC breather that sits under the inlet manifold?

Here is the one you can buy from Anembo, Spec R and Mk Motorsport (amongst others)

Thanks for the suggestion, I've had a look at the WRC breathers and they are probably overkill for what I need. I think I would also struggle to get one in the space I have.
