Yes that is a breather system. I cannot explain it all to you as it would take :30, but it has a catch can on the side with a built in drain and site tube. It took many hours to think up and build.

Negative they are not, although I had planned to use a manual cable to pull them each up or down. Right now I do it by hand, it takes 2 seconds.

Keep buying tickets!

You should like to know I did not drill 1 hole in the car. Everything is ran in and around the stock holes. It could go back to factory if it wanted to.

The hood is not shut all the way in this photo. Most of our pics have the hood up to see the motor.
