I'm sure your welder figure it out, guys have had this done before. He doesn't need to actually weld the baffle to the cover, just weld a blob to the cover through the holes in the baffle to hold it.
I see...good point about the screws. I hope he can get it done Monday. I'm waiting for my helicoil kit to come (have two stripped VC bolt holes) and my 3g lifters. Then after that, flap everything on and make it pretty. Because the VC that I have on now has major cracks around the spark plug holes and oil splashes up in that "valley" every day. I'm getting tired of cleaning it!

But hopefully he figures he can just put a big weld there and secure it. The shop I took it to (PMI truck bodies) was building two dragster frames when I dropped it off. Very awesome shop!
