I can't tell from the picture Lance, but was the crankcase getting pressurized from a bad head gasket?

Sure looks like it's blown, a ton of carbon on there also.Originally Posted by hydromike
yes. direct from cylinder to oil return galley. The engine would smoke a little when getting on the gas. I pulled the air cleaner and saw the breather blowing oil right in to the carb. Holiding wide open, I did see a puff of smoke from the gasket area, then I saw it leaking oil.
1st try at the engine cover using anything I could find in the shop. I like the way it came out. I will clean it up a little bit and find some matching expanded metal for the top. I'm also going to build a luggage rack for it.
Looks very nice Lance.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"
I like it! Nice work! I like both sides but I almost like the diamond holed side better then the square holed mesh.
I thought it looked good the way it was. The beer errr cargo holder would be a good addition, but mismatched metal on the cover is cool.
l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!
Did you make your rollbar yet?
Just moving the camper to the other garage.
This is a very nice machine. I like the U-channel pivot mods. I expect I'll be doing this too. Thanks for the pics of this mod.
