Title: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Rennsurfer on June 25, 2008, 16:17:53 pm Looking for something like this:
(http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=2277.0;attach=6807;image) Don't care if it's used or new. Either Berg or factory. Silly question, but does a Porsche one fit on a Type 1 upright engine? And if so, is an adapter required? Just looking for something to route my breather hoses to the valve covers but looks factory. So hopefully, I can get one with only two hose fittings. Thanks in advance.

I don't know of any adapters are currently being made, but Slinger is working on them ;)
Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Rennsurfer on June 25, 2008, 16:26:53 pm Cool, Zach... thanks. Now, who's Slinger?

Over. Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Jim Ratto on June 25, 2008, 18:37:47 pm we used to run those on Bug motors back in the mid nineties... my friend SODA used to make adapters

I don't know of any adapters are currently being made, but Slinger is working on them ;) I would be intressed in one of those as well.Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Rennsurfer on June 26, 2008, 15:41:00 pm Bummer... I was hopin' they were gonna be easier to acquire. Guess I'll have to contact some of my old P.C.A. friends. The adapter sounds even more difficult to get.
Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Zach Gomulka on June 26, 2008, 17:07:32 pm I'll harrass Slinger. I know he is working on putting a a modified one on the Slingle Cab.

Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Jordy/DVK on June 28, 2008, 22:04:19 pm What about this Aluminium one from CSP???
Looks quite like a VW product, it's an easier fit and is very light... ( but it IS quite expensive $$ ) http://www.csp-shop.de/shop2/frame_nachladen.php?func=det&wkid=3068489903&rub1=Engine&rub2=Breather+Boxes&artnr=22197a&pn=0 Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: JS on June 28, 2008, 23:21:53 pm Itīs also very high quality. And it looks SO much better in real life compared to the picture. The only reason I did not fit it to my car is that you have to modify it to fir a 6V genarator stand.
Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Rennsurfer on June 30, 2008, 16:11:13 pm WOW, I didn't realize that C.S.P. offered one, too. Just as much money as Berg's. Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. Guess the search shall continue.
Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: SlingShot on July 01, 2008, 05:57:30 am I'll harrass Slinger. I know he is working on putting a a modified one on the Slingle Cab. I have been slowly working on making an adapter for a 356/912 breather tower. At first I was planning on using the stock type 1 breather nut, similar to Bergs setup. but I've heard from a lot of guys that their are a lot of leakage issues. I'm leaning towards a weld on base, fewer gaskets, fewer leaks, right. 8) Title: Re: Wanted: Porsche 356/912 oil filler-breather Post by: Gunter on July 01, 2008, 06:57:03 am Itīs also very high quality.

It's meant to adapt a 356c/912 breather to an early 356a/b generator stand.

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. Guess the search shall continue. It's almost $100 more that the Berg one but they probably have them in stock.
