everything looks amazing but I would look into that can setup again. on its side like that the oil will spill out baffled or not, and also you have 2 large lines coming in but one small fitting for that small filter coming out.
those filters are sized right for only one side of the crank case, for both that filter is too small as you notice the fitting you have for it is smaller than the 2 fittings coming in, so its a bottle neck that is worse than stock and you could easily blow a main seal from that. Just tap the top for a AN size or pipe thread a little larger than the 2 coming in, and match it with a larger valve cover breather or run it to the intake pipe if space is a concern.

I finally turned it over and started running, need to trouble shoot more about some lights on my dash... Will post video later.

Trying to prime the fuel pump at this video, airbag light stays on and speedometer is jumping. I found out the problem on the speedo, it is the plug from the AR5 speedo gear which only have 2 wires and SC/R154 has 3 wires. Will figure it out how to wire it.....

I have to wonder if it's possible to swap in a W58-SC speedo sensor or even an MKIII R154 mechanical one with the MC VSS adaptor to correct that issue. The former is very pricey even if it would work (~$250) but either way I think you do need three wires for a proper signal.
The center casings of the AR5 are nearly identical, aren't they? Or is the AR5 VSS on the tail housing? I can't remember, sorry.

On my R154 I retained the mechanical speedo drive and just screwed on marlin crawler's VSS adaptor. Tried and true. You might contact them to see if they have already figured this out since they work on the AR5.
Your shifter sits perfectly. It looks a bit like a Hurst!

Thanks guys....
I finally turned it over and started running, need to trouble shoot more about some lights on my dash... Will post video later.
So the filter size matters... If i go with option 2 which runs another line from that brass barb into the intake pipe, do I still have to change the brass barb that I installed on the catch can to a bigger one? I will use the same -10an hose going to the intake pipe.

Don't even think about running a line from that can to the intake pipe with that can in that position. As Ali_sc3 said, collected liquid will just spill over into that line then into your turbo , intercooler , intake mani and back into your cylinders . And even if you put the can upright , if it is NOT baffaled then don't run a line too. There would be a certain vacuum on that line when the turbo is spinning and will suck that liquid .
