yeah just like that. How did you do it?

I made an adapter for the carb from a PVC cap, and just used a little pipe & an elbow for the rest of it. I found a filter that would fit on top of the PVC and made the top for that from a Briggs piston. The filter is held on by a long bolt that runs down thru the center and threads into a piece of steel inside the pipe.

Where does your PCV breather go?

The block vents to a "puke tank" which is also made out of PVC pipe... it has a filter on it, and allows oil & pressure to leave the block and go back in. There is no factory breather.
