Hi everyone, I went for a spirited drive last night and came back with a huge oily mess all over the engine. I have dual carbs and no crankcase breather as I wasn’t aware the need of one, what do you all recommend? I have a 1.7 block and heads that are now a 2056 and would like to put one in that is as simple as possible. Hoping something that just connects to the oil fill tower. Thanks!

The bugpack breather is the most economical unless you craft your own/fabricate. I was running mine in the same location as SirAndy in the link above. Mount it right to the firewall. I am also on board with how Jake and others plug the head vents. The hoses not only get in the way, but they also are a real pain to secure hose clamps all the way down in there even with carbs and small hands. You can either just vent to the box or hook up the 2 additional ports to vent into the tops of the carb air filters.
