Product Details

Features

  • Screw-in steel baffles with white zinc finish for oil control inside valve covers
  • Fits tall aluminum valve covers on the Ford Small Block Windsor V8
  • Hardware included — no separate fasteners needed for installation
  • Sold as a pair — one baffle for each valve cover

Description

These Baffles for Small Block Ford Tall Aluminum Valve Covers are screw-in steel baffles designed to improve oil control inside compatible tall-profile aluminum valve covers. The white zinc finish resists corrosion, and mounting hardware is included for installation.

This baffle set fits the Ford Small Block Windsor V8 family — 3.6L/221, 4.2L/255, 4.3L/260, 4.7L/289, 4.9L/302 (commonly called the 5.0L), and 5.8L/351 (commonly called the 351W) — specifically for tall-profile aluminum valve covers.

Verify your valve cover is the tall aluminum style before ordering, since baffle fitment depends on matching the internal cover profile — tall covers are often chosen specifically to clear larger aftermarket rocker arms, so this baffle should match that clearance need. These do not include a breather — a separate breather cap will still be needed if your valve cover requires one.


Applications

Q&A

Is this a full valve cover or just the baffles?
This is a baffle kit only, containing a pair of screw-in steel baffles with mounting hardware designed for compatible tall-profile aluminum valve covers. Valve covers, gaskets, and breathers are not included.

What does this baffle kit fit?
This baffle kit fits tall-profile aluminum valve covers for Ford Small Block Windsor V8 engines, including 221 CID, 255 CID, 260 CID, 289 CID, 302 CID (5.0L), and 351W CID applications.

Will this fit a short aluminum valve cover?
No. This baffle kit is designed specifically for tall-profile aluminum valve covers and is not compatible with short-profile valve covers.

Why would I need a tall valve cover baffle instead of a short one?
Tall valve covers are commonly used to provide additional clearance for larger aftermarket rocker arms and valvetrain components. This baffle is specifically sized to fit the increased internal height of tall-profile valve covers.

Is hardware included?
Yes. Mounting hardware is included for installation.

Does this include a breather?
No. A breather is not included and must be purchased separately if required for your valve cover application.

What are these baffles made from?
These baffles are manufactured from steel and feature a white zinc finish for corrosion resistance.

How many baffles come in this set?
This kit includes two baffles, providing one for each valve cover.

Does this kit affect emissions compliance?
No. This product does not affect vehicle emissions and is not subject to emissions compliance regulations.
