Hey guys another question.

So the motor in my supercharged deluxe has no crankcase breather.

Being supercharged I expect it to breath a little so where can I fit one?

The timing cover and flywheel housing out due to the supercharger setup. Is the breather on the rocker cover enough or can I fit one to the fuel pump mount.

Cheers guys

That one is baffled. It might/should work.
If you make an unbaffled one like I did, it won't work. Anything over 4500rpm and the crank and rods threw heaps of oil at it. It made like JB007.
I was using an S breather on there, NO, they are not an `oil separator'. Flame trap would be a better description.

You can use the fuel pump hole for a breather and oil catch can return.

I've got the Mini Mania baffled (well, sort of) breather linked mounted on my fuel pump hole. It goes to a catch can. The hose is filled with steel wool as a droplet disperser. I still get extra oil in the catch can if I rev past 4500rpm too often.

That said, I do think it's a valid place to mount a breather. Just be aware that you'll lose oil up there. And if you can put in some form of extra baffle... Do it.

What's wrong with the flywheel housing?
What type of Supercharger kit do you have?
I have a Smiffy bits breather on the flywheel housing and a VMAXSCART kit with Eaton supercharger.
