I bought a cosworth baffle plate for my closed deck block, and when i tried to fit it yesterday i found out it doesn't fit at all. The two vertical plates on the back of the baffleplate hit the block and the baffleplate doesnt fall in place.
There is a huge gap between the block and the plate:
Looking through this hole you can see the vertical plate touching the block:
How did you trim yours? Just cut a piece of with a saw or something? And how much am i supposed to trim? How much space should be between the plate and the block?
On some blocks the vertical pieces need trimming with a whizzy wheel or file (make sure you cleana thoroughly afterwards). Just trim til the plate sits flush.
They were designed for the EJ207 but need a little 'fettle' to fit the center thrust blocks.
Needs approx 2.50mm removing to clear the webs and its prudent to remove the rubber flaps to clean the swarf out properly.
