Re: How important is the oil pan baffle
If your referring to the plate that's located in the sump area of the pan running side to side when the latter 80 pound pump is used the plate is removed due to it being in the way of the latter pumps pickup.
With the plate removed its best to use the latter oil pump assembly.
The early oil pump pickup location is closer to the rear of the sump so it clears that plate.
