Gen 1 VC baffle

I picked up a valve cover breather and ended up getting a bunch of oil pushed out the valve cover (I assumed it was going to happen, but I tried anyway)

Well, I liked the idea of the breather so I mocked up a baffle to block off the oil slosh from getting all over everything. Had some people I chat with express interest in it as well. Would there be sufficient interest if I made a stack of these? Price would probably be $40-50 depending on what all I included with it.

I have yet to fully install it and test it out, so it will be a bit before its ready to fully release (maybe within a month or so if there is enough interest).

I will try and get one installed here and make sure it works. Let me know if you see any ideas for improvement and I will try and get it going here.

Here is a pic of my mock up, and then the CAD file I would have actually made

With you now being a sales rep for Mazda USA, i feel you can now get anything on your car warrantied. That is regardless of how much friggin loc-tite you pour on stuff.
Oh this is a red loctite install for sure. Count me in!

it was hitting the chain, and I no longer have a car to make/test them on so I probably wont end up making any without a way to make the design improved.

Well, you can always mess with my car if you wanted to figure it out.

Seen this and figured I would chime in. I made something similar to this on my built motor and it ended badly as the chain broke mine and it got lodged into the timing chain and cover. What a mess and definitely not worth it lol
 
I have this from speed solutions and its been great.
