Now I know this topic can be found in the archives, but I still have a few unanswered questions. A few peole say they just bridged a tube across to connect the two tubes. If yo do this, do you still have to plug the holes? If I try to fill the holes with epoxy would I have to remove the head? It seems to me that you would have to remove the head, because the epoxy would run down into the valve area. Maybe this isn't true, because removing the head is alot of work just to fill a couple holes. I just got my head on, and dont plan on doing it all over again

The holes are covered by the valve cover so don't worry about them. Just run the hose side to side. If you ever decided to pull the head you can drill and tap for 10mm plugs. Then you can use a "regular" valve cover.

Until I got the covers for the reed valves I just ran the tube from 1 side to the other and used a filter on the crank vent. I recently got reed valve covers from this guy.

They worked perfect on my bike.
