 +Crankcase vented to atmosphere, while keeping the Screamin Eagle air cleaner. \\
 +  * Parts:
 +    * 1/4" fuel hose
 +    * 1/4" vacuum nipple ​
 +    * 1/4" vacuum tee
 +    * 1/4" vacuum elbow 
 +
 +If you look at the base of the air cleaner there is a lug molded on the right side. \\
 +A 7/16" hole was drilled through the lug. \\
 +The 1/4" hose has to be forced through the 7/16" hole creating a tight seal. \\
 +The 1/4" hose was run to the bottom of the bike and zip tied out of the way. \\
 +The Screamin Eagle air cleaner uses the rubber elbows to direct the crankcase gases into the carb. \\
 +These were cut in the straight section and connected the hoses there. \\
 +The rubber pieces on the breather bolts are part of the Screamin Eagle air cleaner kit, part number 63520-04. \\
 +Other parts can be bought at local auto parts stores.
