Ok if you do the conversion, which i am about to do....What are you guys doing with the breather holes on the heads? If the pcv's are on the top of the rocker boxes and you remove the lower rocker box sections, You still have the open holes in the heads.

Thanks for the info.

In the parts list here (somewhere) it includes 2 button allen head screws to replace the breather bolts.

Thread pitch is 1/2" coarse. Use some teflon tape.

I used HD parts originally, FLST seat bracket chrome screws (hd pn 94289-94T) but the rear didn't get enough torque so I filled the hole it left behind with a bolt and lock nut from the Ace hardware store in Green River on warm morning with Ferris and Dave Bird and their lovely ladies.

That part is still in, I think my daughter and I painted it black though.
