how many different places are there on a yb to breath from?
am i right in thinking there are 3 from the crankcase (flame trap, rear tube on the cam cover that goes straight through and the blanking plug that is usually used as an oil return) plus actually taking a feed from the cam cover itself???
also would there be any reason why you couldnt breath from all of the above so long as a catch tank is used???

i think half of the problem is my current setup, i don't think it's anywhere near ideal..
if you look towards the right hand side of the cam cover, the small filter thingy is connected onto the top of the standard pot, i can pull this up and down with very little force, which i presume is pulling the return out of the block at the same time? ( hard to see with the inlet in place. )
so, with the 3-port system..
1 pipe to the blanked hole on the exhaust side
1 pipe to the top of the standard pot
1 pipe ...?
then the large hole at the bottom of the bailey breather pot vents to atmosphere ( i'll connect a pipe to direct it under the car.
???
will attempt it tomorrow guys and things should become clearer

all fitted now 
the bailey fitting kit was excellent and instructions were pretty easy to follow.
on my 2wd i have;
1 pipe to turbo side of block ( adapter fitted when standard blanking plug removed )
1 pipe to top of the cam cover which i had drilled today and adaptor fitted
1 pipe to top of standard firetrap once all other gubbins are removed from the trap, including the breather into the side of the inlet,which then had a blanking screw put in.
and in the kit there was also a large bore pipe to direct vented gases out of the bottom of the car.
i can supply pics if people need them
