Which Catch Can?

this is just my opinion, but the further away you mount the catch can the better it will work... You gotta remember it's purpose, it is seperating liquid from a vapor... the longer the vapor travels away from it's source, the cooler it gets. When it cools the vapor turns to a liquid....

it keeps from having blow-by oil get past the PCV during WOT & High RPM situations & getting into the intake plenum. Install the catch can between the PCV & plenum & the can catches the oil instead of it being dumped into the plenum. Just basically helps keep the intake runners in plenum & heads from getting dirty.

I'm not sure what you mean. Mine is bolted directly onto the large stud the booster is bolted to. The stud sticks out significantly past the master cylinder, with plenty of room for the catch can. The stud is the exact same size as the hole in the bracket. All that was required was a nut. No zip ties required. The hoses aren't long enough to need them.
