 +  * Reed Valve Assembly (26909-79).
 +  * Breather vent fitting thread size at the cam cover is 1/8" NPT. ((IronMick of the XLFORUM http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=1003815))
 +  * Rubber hose connects to the cam cover fitting at the 10 o’clock position and runs to the stock air filter. \\ This way any oil mist that makes it past the reed valve is fed back through the engine.
