Thanks Chickenears! (PICS)
Ordered a few billet pieces from Tim at Chickenears for the Fabulous Fords Forever auto show at Knott's Berry Farm. Tim threw in a custom firewall shroud cover to go along with the other underhood pieces. 
Here are a few pics from the show:

Already had the cheaper LFP sep. then got the Catch Can. Decided why not run both? The LFP pulls the majority of the oil, and the catch can gets what sneaks by. I figure with two systems in place less is getting to the catch can and hopefully nothing is getting through. Just added insurance I'd guess you'd say.

Its an old JLP stainless one.
The window washer res is out of a taurus and sits in front of the cooler between it and the headlight.
Heres an old pic of the set-up

I also have a lot of Chikenears billet stuff; it looks great, BUT....
You're gonna find that the aluminum waterspots terribly, especially if you run your truck thru automatic car washes. And the waterspots are absolute HELL to get off. "White paste" polishes don't work, nor does anything else that one would normally try. I finally found some metal cleaner that does the job, but it was still a lot of work.
So, I recently removed all the pieces, bought a tabletop buffer, and using the cleaner I bought, buffed them back to perfect. THEN, I sprayed them with clear coat spray paint, and that seems to have sealed them up real good.
Just a little hint to save you from water spot hell.

I haven't had too much of a problem because I wipe under the hood every time I wash. The JLP tank on the other hand is horrible with water spots.
