I have the option of putting an oil baffle in my engine when I put it together this weekend. I have the baffle and the correct pickup.
My guess is that the baffle is there to keep oil in the sump while under hard cornering? Its just a guess. McMark said to open it up so that oil would get back into the sump faster. It is better just not to use it? I am planning on running a tuna can, if that matters at all. Zach |
