502 valve cover baffles
 
Hello, I have a stock set of valve covers and need to remove the baffles. With this baffles removed will I suck more oil thru my PCV valve what are any other options. Thanks Jeff

Why do you need to remove the baffles???

You need the baffles if you're running PCV valves.

I'm changing the stock rockers to summit's roller rockers.

Cheap way......Use two rubber gaskets under each cover.

You need to grind off the corners on the #1 and #7 intake rocker arms. That is even what Merc did to the Crane rockers on blue motors.

Don't buy the summit brand anything for your valve train unless you like holes in your pistons.

Why???? I ran them just fine on a hopped up 454mag. I certainly wouldn't put them on more that a 600hp engine though.

Have crane roller rockers and doubled up Fel pro neoprene gaskets it leaked big time it was that way when I bought the boat. I bought the taller valve covers from eddie marine red fusion coat problem solved!!!
