I'll try get some next time I'm home. It's pretty intuative. You just block the 2 x holes (or is it 1 ? can't remember) running into the air box. I used normal bathroom silicon. Then you've made your self a sealed colector box which is obviously no good so I drilled a 5mm hole in the standard collector box. Do it right at the top so the oil will condense and fall back down. My collector box is filled with anti baffle foam but I don't know if that's stock or not. The collector box just screws off the air box with 2 posi-drive screws.
Bob's your dad's brother etc. You can't go wrong.

It works great, no hot air into the airbox and the crank case can still breath no probs. No leaks, it's all good.
Dont think the pointy has a catch tank, it breathes straight into section of the airbox with a chunk of foam gauze in it.

I think I need to see it to understand it - the collector looks like a mini air box in the left hand side under the air box right?

Its ringing some bells from my old mini twin I think,

If photo's are no a pain, as and when!
