when i first fired it up. started on the first try .after 2 months of nada lol

No breather required when it's done properly.

If you can tap the block like the LNF, it's the better way to go. Tapping the oil pan will still have the drain below the oil level. Or at least in my buddies case it was.

should buy Pauls Valve cover it's black, and looks nice. I was going to buy it, but I have to save for the swap now. Check it out it's in his garage sale thread....if it's not sold. I think he wanted 75?
