Baffle Plates

12A Oil Pan Baffle Plate

For the oil Pan Gasket  Click Here  Please note you will need 2 gaskets

Oil Baffle Plate slows the return of engine oil as it drains from the engine into the pan. In slowing the oil's return, air that has been suspended in the oil (as foam) is allowed more time to separate from the oil.

Removing this trapped air both improves the ability of the oil to transfer heat and reduces pressure drops at high RPM. The plate is sandwiched between the engine and the oil pan. It is recommended that two oil pan gaskets be used, one below and one above the plate, to provide proper sealing.

You will need longer oil pan bolts to accomplish installing this baffle plate.
