Baffle Plates

[enemy R32]

Just in the middle of rebuilding my RB26 and was wondering whether i should re attach the two baffle plates to the main bearing caps? I have intalled a Tomei sump baffle kit. My first impressions are that i should, but i wanted to confirm with some of you guys who probably know much more than i do on this topic (thinking to much splash back up to the rods? ). If i dont have to put them back in, then what are the advantages and disadvantages of doing so?

Thanx

I think they collect the oil thrown off the crank and rods and guide it into the sump.

Better to put em back on as they were designed to do a job.

I put mine back on as per factory.
