Tip: Add a hose from each of the oil catch can drain valves to the bottom of the engine. When you change your engine oil, drain the oil from the oil catch cans.. no need to remove the oil catch cans!

PS: Another oil catch can setup is Speed Force Racing - Your forced induction specialists that was designed for a twin turbo 350Z setup with custom dual intake plenum with dual throttle bodies. I am not sure they are still in business though.
I am not sure why the volume captured on each side is different. Great tip, but I assume you would have to drill some holes in the motor to attach the lines ? Not really hard to drain them the way it is now. Nice set up on that 350Z !
