Yes, I have had the head breather bolts blocked since I added the new vent cover. The heads vent through the pushrod cover tubes into the cam chest.

 

Do you operate you engine at fairly high RPM?

 

I typically cruise between 2000 and 3000 rpm. If I need to accelerate quickly I will shift above 5000 rpm. It does not make sense to rev to really high RPM with a stock motor, and in 4th gear the speed is already reaching 100 mph. Here is an analysis of optimum shift points for a stock 114.

 

The question I had was maybe you are one of those hi rpm guys necessitating the breather mods.
My cruising speeds match yours with a lower likelihood of exceeding 5k. I have not noticed a need for breather mods.

 

There is no need to modify the stock breather system.

I routed the new breather hose externally to eliminate breather vapor as a source of carbon deposits on valves, pistons, and the combustion chamber. The intake manifold, throttle valve, and Manifold Absolute Pressure & Temperature sensor, and fuel injectors will also stay clean longer.

 

Is the FLHP available outside the US ? I'm in Ireland recently missed out on a brand new unregistered "Standard" in a local dealer. I'd love a FLHP over it.

 

You will need to ask your local dealer.

 

Thanks @Hulkss enjoying my 2023 Flhtp.

How 'bout a photo of it?

 

Sorry it’s a bad shot in the garage, storming here in the DFW area.
