Doherty PowerPacc?
I'm having some oil misting with my current build, the Ness Big Sucker is dripping some oil out between the air filter and the backing plate. So I'm looking for options to replace the current air cleaner setup and solve the oil misting problem.
Is the Doherty Powerpacc with power vents the best way to go?
Where is the best place to get this at the best price?
I see the MSRP is $299.99.............what's the best deal going on this?
I don't want to have to run any drain lines for the breathers...........I want a clean look that will solve my oil misting problem.

RE: Doherty PowerPacc?
Steve,
If you are getting a little blow by the power vents are not going to stop that and you will need to either run them into the back of the AF or dun lines to other point below the bike.
I am currently running them and on the new build so far I dont have any oil misting problems but that is more a function of the TP rocker boxes than the vents.
If I need to I will run the lines as I am not a fan of having oil , no mater how small the volume is, runing in through the Tb and past the injectors.

Agree, I have the PowerPacc and still have a little oil mist but I run the lines to another filter underneath the intake still love the intake and would buy it again.

I've emailed Bart, and I'm waiting to hear back from him on pricing.

How do the power vents work? I mean, what makes them special?

Bart has very good prices but since I live in the state the 9.35% sales tax eats it.

I run two lines to the atmosphere under the motor Steve,I check them every once and a while and its barley enough fluid there to get my fingertip wet.
What purpose does running both lines to abreather/filter serve,I would think it be as messy as nothing attached to the powervents?

RE: Doherty PowerPacc?
Anyone have the Drag part numbers for the kit with the powervents? or the little filter kit that goes with the vent lines?
