I sorta hate to add another PCV question! There are plenty of threads and I reckon I've read most of them but can't quite find the answer.
I have an ACE finned valley cover to put on my 312 with a grommet and valve to suit. The cover comes with a PCV provision - a circular flat area ready to be machined out and 2 posts on the underside which presumably could be drilled and tapped to screw on a baffle (not sure I would be comfortable with the possibility of dropping a screw).
What configuration should the baffle be? I imagine something like Mummert's maybe, but I can't see a decent photo of his. Is it sealed on just 2 sides, allowing airflow in through the outer 2 edges? Or is another design better? And what about the large vertical baffle that the stock cover comes with? I gather it's not particularly necessary?
(It's interesting that they put a baffle below the filler though)
Thanks, Mark
