Default catch can mounting

Ok, I have a catch can and I know where I want to mount it. Anyone have. Some suggestions on how to mount it? I was looking for an Adel clamp but couldnt find one big enough. Thoughts?

How large is the can? Look at clamps for fuel filters and pumps, also look at Moroso, Petersen etc. They all offer mounting solutions for catch cans and tanks. In an ideall world it is best to have the catch can mounted lower than the the fitting in the valve cover (I presume that this is an oil vapor catch can?) thia will allow the condended vapor to flow to the can and not back to the valve cover. If it has a valve on the bottom make sure that you can access it to drain on a periodic basis.
