Just curious Mike, are you using syn or dyno oil? I use syn and get a little oil in the air cleaner

Never a problem here and I'm one of those that keep a "to the full" oil tank and ride pretty hard and engine brake coming down the mountains.
I gotta laugh at my own analogy here but oil blow by is like always shittin in your underwear. you can wear a kotex to hide it but theres a problem inside somewhere that needs attention.

This issue has been on my mind for quite a while.

I just ordered a kit from DK. Going to put that worry to rest.

What A/C do you have? From you sig pic it looks like the stock, if that's the case then the Discrete Head Breather System will work.

Just noticed in your sig that it says the Kury Street Sleeper, if that's the case then both the Discrete listed above AND the Premium Discrete, AND the TC Complete Breather System will work.

It's just a matter of what look (or non-look if you want to hide everything behind the football cover) you want.

I used this method years ago on a Ford V-8. I sold the motor later on and the buyer pulled the heads and later told me that it was the cleanest motor he had seen in a long time.

One of these days, todo. Great write up. I'll have to tap the screaming eagle heavy breather too.

Just ordered the Premium Discrete. Ready to be done with wiping oil off of the cam chest cover and pipes.

I vented the same way, butt... I tapped for a 10/32 set screw. inside filter housing so no oil can get in.
