That's fine if you want to be him, but the proviso is that you have to wear that pointy hat too!!!

I am going to install mine were the winsheild washer tank use to be.
Any of you worried about that steel mesh going inside the engine? i was thinking about that last night. I might email him about.

Switch the idle stabilizer and catch can lines before blowing your pan gasket.
Other than that, looks like a nice product.

LR suggest enlarging the hole in the AOS if you are venting the breather to atmosphere as with their product. This is to compensate for the absence of vacuum to help crankcase breathing as in the stock setup.

I was trying to remove the unnecessary oil vapors going back to my intake...What's with the vacuum/no vacuum?
Using crayons instead of pens would help...at least, for me it would!
Thanks!

Yes - this is obvious.
It is not sufficient.
An open circuit catch-can should not be used on a 951.

IPSC: Did you run a line from the bottom of the catch can back to the sump somehow or does the oil just collect and you drain it periodically?
