Certainly seems that you brand new Boston Bob engine would be very worthy of new oil tower/breather valve - didn't one guy say they were 90 bucks ? That's not that much more of an investment considering what I imagine his new engines cost.

The reason for my question is I'm putting a rebuilt Boston Bob 2.1 into my '85 Westy and transferring many things over from the old engine. I cleaned up the breather tower and "Tried" to test it. Blowing and sucking on the hose nipple makes me think the tower is "Straight through" and only functioning as a vapor separator. Sigh ... Mike
