Hi All,
Just wondering what people are using for T1 breather towers these days. I prefer the tower mount rather than an additional box to mount.

The Berg one may no longer be in production, from what I have read.
The CSP one, which looks like its design is influenced by the Berg one is like $300.......

I have seen a cheaper alternative at $100, but can't find any details or examples of use.

Please post images of what is working for you.

You could probably get an accurate shipping quote if you bought it through www.piersideparts.net

Some of the cheaper ones might not be as good as the berg or csp ones but I really can't comment, I've never used any of them. I'm sure the cb performance one would be alright.

Berg.

Fits, doesn't leak or fall off, works properly... Easy to top up the oil without funnel etc

Hi Daimo,
I agree with the Berg tower, but thought they were NLA.
I dont suppose there is one in Jeff's stash that is for sale somewhere? If not I will contact Berg directly.

Thanks,
Wayne.

deimosaircooled in the UK have just started selling a new tower designed by some fellas in the UK who made them for them n some mates and got so much attention at the UK shows that they put them into production just this year. link here Oil breather tower

can be ordered with or without breather pipe inlets and being from the UK the shipping is way way way cheaper than a single part from USA 🙂

^^^^^ geez................

I really dont mind paying for quality but $480 Aus + post is a bit on the high side

Thats what I thought,
I would rather get the proven Berg for half that!!!

Thought I'd throw it in the mix due to US postal costs plus didn't know the Berg one was that cheap.

Probably find in a years time it'll be a lot lower in price as production costs fall.

Always good to cast the net wide 🙂
