Valley baffle for roller cam??

I am in the midst of compsing an x-mas list (and an engine rebuild ) and cam accross the idea of a valley baffle. Looking on summit, they show that they have them. however, they are not compatable with roller lifters/roller cams. are there any baffles that are roller-compatable or is there any way to make a valley baffle roller compatable??

Sure...

Use the real roller system, and get rid of the factory's stuff that takes up the space where the baffle needs to go.

Something tells me they don't have that picture right. "OEM replacement" would not have a bar connecting pairs.

Try http://store.summitracing.com/partde...CCA%2D818%2D16 or http://store.summitracing.com/partde...N%2D11532%2D16 .

Note the Crane picture is wrong, too (that's Summit's fault, not the manufacturers).
