Another install
When I mounted my Goodson A/C originally, I just bolted it right up to the throttle body and routed the original breather tubes into the gap at top of the A/C where the air flow enters.
I had seen a Sifton A/C mount with integral breather as seen on p. 320 of V-Twin Mfg catalog (V-Twin P/N 34-0705). I finally decided to go for it and just got it installed yesterday. I had to run over to Lowes and buy some 1/4 - 20 x 1-1/4" cap screws to complete the job today ... snapped a couple of photos.
I think it'll keep the oil out of the A/C a little better and looks much neater ... a pretty good solution as the Goodson didn't come with anything to address the breather situation.

Are those cap bolts acting like hole plugs ?
If so, that's a real bad idea!

I'm betting there are internal passages in the bracket for the breathers.
So Todd, you going to be around in August for the Goldendale trip?
