That is a very cool! Looks great and very well done. A rain sock is easy to fab up for that. It looks a lot like a RS a/c, maybe you can get one of theirs? (if needed)

Good job!!

check it out, let me know what you think

sorry if fuzzy, cell phone pic's

the carnage


And here it is installed








I used a paint marker to cover the raw edge from cutting it...
Nice job. Very clean...
I'm runnig the Doherty crankcase breathers (external), but still getting the oil mist; I intend to redirect the mist back into the A/C.
A friend of mine is using doherty's internal c-case breathers that are installed in the rocker boxes. He said they're worth every penny.
Basically, if you look at what Doherty's done, they've just created more area for the oil mist to contact before the presurized crankcase air exhausts throught head breather bolts.
roll on

You're good to go then! Nice work!
