Default Crankcase breather install woes! Need HELP!

Wow, so I'm having a brainfart or something but i have a screamin eagle stage 1 a/c (circular type) and i just purchased a crankcase breather kit for it. only problem is that the breather bolts that came with the drag specialties c/c breather are too short. it's either this or the set of instructions worth using as toilet paper. the c/c breather is 2 breather screws, 2 banjo fittings, 4 step washers and 2 reg washers.

If what I am trying to do is right, the main problem would be the S/E back plate for the head mounts are too thick, thus the breather screw won't reach the fittings in the head.

ugh ****. Thanks for any help!

You sure the kit is supposed to work with that SE A/C? Most of those kind of kits are designed to work with other manufacturer's aftermarket A/Cs, the kind that use a mounting bracket rather a one-piece backing plate.

Found out the hard way, now it can work with custom breather bolts that you can cut to size...but the bolts are 67$ for 2....I'm just gonna wait it out for the event that i do something more radical with an air cleaner. welp good thing it was free or else it looks like i'd be out 60$
