Question Crankcase Breather Alternitives for Forcewinder

Those with a forcewinder style a/c what have you done with your crankcase breather and are you running a carb/efi support bracket? The Screamin eagle heavy breather came with a integral crankcase breather/support bracket that dumps back into the throttle body.
I bought a carb support bracket and tube and filter kit from jp and I am constantly tighting the bolts conecting it to the head and it is constantly leaking oil around them and through the mini k&n filter on it. Should I use gasket sealnt around the waser between the bracket and the head and should I use locktite on the bolts going into the head to stop them from vibrating loose? Is there a better option I found a aftermarket intergal support breather bracket in JP but they want almost 2hundred for it and I dont want to spend that much.

Blue locktite is your friend.

Seems like everybody has a heavy breather, but I don't like the forcewinder's method of crankcase venting..... so

I'm designing my own heavy breather/forcewinder style a/c...... the crankcase breathers connect through tubes, to my baseplate. It will be a couple more months before I can get the parts built and assembled tho. $$
