No ,I don't think so,the backing plate where the rubber grommets are is not big enough for the bolts and the bolts are not long enough for the backing plate either.

Some have run it up under the tank and down to the tranny for a cleaner look.

For all that hassle the DK isnt that expensive and you could sell the FM unit.

I use DK breather with the rubber hose adapter. I ran the hose between the cylinders to a filter behind the cow bell.

As stated, the Outlaw Breather bolts won't work with the FM A/C on a Twin Cam, but the Discrete Head Breather System will.

I've seen a lot of different configurations with our kits, but never that one. Very good idea!!!

Here are a couple of pics of popular routing locations-






But I really like the idea of under the cowbell!
