Catch tanks aren't just accessories—they're vital for peak kart performance. The BWCFCT2 Carbon Fiber Catch Tank, tailored for Clone-style engines, captures oil mist with precision through its dual fittings: one 1/4-inch inlet for breather hoses and a 5/16-inch outlet for drainage. Crafted from premium carbon fiber, it slashes weight compared to aluminum alternatives, allowing your kart to corner quicker without sacrificing stability.
In Clone racing classes, where rules are tight and competition fierce, managing blow-by is key to avoiding power dips. This tank condenses vapors efficiently, returning clean air to the intake and minimizing oil carryover that could foul spark plugs or reduce compression. Racers report smoother operation and fewer mid-race adjustments, translating to more time on track and less in the pits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this catch tank compatible with all Clone-style engines?
A: Yes, the BWCFCT2 is specifically engineered for Clone-style kart engines. Its compact design and dual-fitting configuration ensure seamless integration with standard breather setups found on these platforms.
Q: How do I plumb the dual fittings on this tank?
A: The 1/4-inch inlet should be connected to your engine's breather hose to capture oil mist. The 5/16-inch outlet is designed for drainage, allowing you to easily clear accumulated oil and maintain optimal engine breathing.
Q: Why choose carbon fiber over aluminum for a catch tank?
A: Carbon fiber offers a significant weight reduction compared to traditional aluminum tanks. In karting, every ounce counts; reducing weight helps improve your power-to-weight ratio, leading to better acceleration and more agile cornering.
Q: Does this catch tank require special maintenance?
A: Maintenance is minimal. We recommend checking the tank periodically during your race day routine to drain any collected oil through the 5/16-inch outlet. This prevents overflow and ensures your engine continues to run at peak efficiency.
