Modified oil baffle on aftermarket valve covers.

Something I wanted to share, I bought some CFR valve cover adapters so I could use SBC covers to hide my coils. One of the issues I found and, there were a few, was that the oil baffles for the PCV/Vent seemed inadequate. And I was right. After a couple hundred mile break-in I began to get smoke out the exhaust. I first thought it was a ring issue till I noticed the breather on one cover weeping oil. Disconnected my PCV line from the carb and the smoke went away. After some thought I pulled the cover and decided to replace the baffle with some a bit more capable. After a bit of testing I haven't had any smoking.
