Brief Description:  Oil Breather Vent + FWF Finsihing

-Fab'd up the oil breather vent line that runs from the separator tank to the cowl exit area. I used a combination of the aluminum part that Vans supplies and rubber hose. Worked out well right between the exhaust.
Worked on a bunch of misc fwf stuff
-Firesleeved the wire bundles that penatrate the firewall (there are two). I need more firesleeve material to finish the job, but this is a good start. I stuffed the sleeving up into the ss tubing. I'll cover that layer with more layers to seal up the excess space in the tube and then RTV (red silicone) the ends.
-Put adel clamps onto the various hoses that needed support. Those clamps are the devil to install sometimes. Ran out of the correct sizes so I didn't finish.
-Put the fasteners on the alternate air cable exit grommet where it penatrates the firewall
-Secured the lower plug wires
-Did some misc tie wrapping of wires to tidy things up - more to do yet in this area.

Much warmer the last 2 days - especially today.
