Removing baffle from valve cover?

[Slippi84]

My catch can setup I picked up of the link forum. Proven to be plenty "proper" for 9 sec cars with baffles in so I think I'll stick with it

Does anybody have any pictures from the under side of the valve cover after installing the -10 fittings? It seems like if you place them over top of the existing spots about half of the fitting will be below the baffle and the other half would be above.

Is that how you guys the kept the baffles are running it?

Also on the back side did anybody grind away some material so the fitting would sit flat?

Also if anybody has more pictures that'd be much appreciated!

I'm just trying to do everything I can myself so when I bring it to my local shop all they have to do is weld on the fittings for me.

what do you guys think about custom 1mm SS baffle like this?

the main question is about these oval holes, are they OK and if it's enough or is it too much?

My question is how does it get put on? The valvecover is aluminum.

The same way you put the stock one back on. Either by welding tabs right above the baffle to hold it down or blob weld on top of the baffle where the stock welds are. I don't think you could get a thick enough aluminum for the baffle in there to be able to weld it without burning through the baffle.

that's why I think 1mm thick stainless steel should be OK there
the only question is how, where and what shape holes to make in places where the evap. gas recirculates?

do you guys think it should work fine, I mean this kind of SIMPLE shape/design?
