In my pressure fed engine I don't need the oil sieve/filter because it's got a full flow filter. However I have replaced the sieve/filter with a 1/4 steel plate with some 5/8 holes in it. My thinking was to add some strength and have a horizontal baffle against oil surge.

Since the engine is going back together now I'm questioning the "strength" value. Would a lighter baffle be sensible?

What have other people fitted?

Thanks

Charles
