S&S Cycle Standard Steel Breather Gear for 1948-1977 Harley-Davidson Big Twin
Improving crankcase breathing on a Panhead or Shovelhead-era Big Twin reduces internal pressure and keeps oil from pushing past seals. This all-steel breather gear features a welded-in screen and an elongated breather pocket scavenge hole for higher flow than the stock gear. The direct-fit design installs in place of the original without modification for immediate breathing improvement.
