For those running dual carbs, how do you attach a crankcase breather hose to the filters? Especially if you have K&Ns, which I plan to replace. Do you run two hoses? Got pics? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

I am going to throw this out and take my lumps. Why do you need to pull the
heads? Why can't you drop the engine, pull the v cover, rocker assy, air tubes may be nesessary, plug the intake and push rod tubes with oiled cheese cloth or cotton linen. and drill them. Use a piece of brass tubing (JB Weld if you wish) and drive it in to the head and reassemble after cleanup. Then its done, you'll never need to mess with it again. With the valve cover ( that should have come with a factory zipper) breather everytime you need to adjust the valves...Well you get the point. Just my .02 |

Perhaps one of the true 914 gurus can tell you why. But that's why 1.8 heads aren't drilled for vents from the factory. But once the car is carb'd, it needs the vents. Gotta go... the 914 has to be prepared for a 1700 mile round trip to Route66! |
