[BaadAssGremlins] Re: OIL BAFFLE IN INTAKE REALLY NEEDED? V8

["z_man401" <z_man401@xxxxxxxxx>]

  My problem is its a pain to take off when my tools are seriously 
limited where I am.  I hate forking out money for a big ass hammer i 
will only use once to knock off the rivets.  there are a few people 
on the list who  Are driving without it installed and have no 
reported problems.  I have also heard from a few I will suck some 
some oil down the carb.  I am thinking that might only happen if you 
have really  good oil pressure. I just would like to hear from more 
people ..  I just took off my intake yesturday it looks like a sludge 
fest to top things off.  and i will have to clean up some of that 
crispy sludge and caked on valve cover gaskets remnents with my hands 
since i dont have a shop vac either..  
My friends around me are toolless haha  and so am i currently.  i 
have tools they are just 1100 miles away in a storage garage.
