    how hard are you turning this motor and what do you have for a vent, since you have to change the side cover gasket you could drill it for a 3/8 tube and try it you could cap it if its something else also you can put a gauge to measure the pressure in the crankcase

    i wasnt saying that the thin gasket wont work just passing the word some ppl may read this and it may help i would imagine if the engine is mildly modded and the pistons in the hole your best off using the .009 i use one on my honda 270 it had plenty of room
