  1. #1

    Default Valve Cover Baffles

    Anybody have a set of full length baffles they would sell?

    You might hit Todd up (WhiteRT). He had a group buy going on those a few years ago. Maybe the vendor he used would be willing to make you some.

    I tried to set up a deal with a shop to make sets of these baffles. Had 1 sheet of 4x8 aluminum to start with. Had a set to use as a pattern. Basically all the guy had to do was cut and drill them for me. I would bend and provide screws. Plus I still had to deal with selling and shipping them. He gave me an estimate that was not in my favor. Roughly split 75/25 %. And that was with me still providing material. I passed on the deal. All I was going to do was provide him with another source of income. Thanks but no thanks. Installed the set I had in my engine and sold the aluminum to a buddy.

    Why are the full length baffles necessary? Are they for stock valve covers?

    Project Maverick. I feel the need, the need for speed

    For the Mopar Magnum covers. Helps keep the pcv from sucking so much oil.

    Oh-you were talking to me...I didn't see a quote to my post. I don't recall what I paid for them. I'll try and find out (maybe a GB thread) and get back to you.
