Default Need Original oil baffle

I'm changing to a larger pan and it requires the original baffle, that I don't have.

Anyone have one laying around?

I have one, I also have the LN Engineering baffle spacer to raise it & pan bolts if you want that.

Also have one, ..somewhere in the garage, but frankly, I do not recommend it, the lateral doors (rubber) are shot !
I would (strongly) recommend to keep using metal doors, and find an adapter that works with the larger pan (I also use a large pan, and modified the metal door metal baffle in order to be able to use it.)
This original plastic baffle with rubber doors are imo **very** poor design, they looks bad at ambient garage temperature, I just cannot imagine how they could be at track usage oil temperature !!!

The "doors" I am offering are fine thanks.

Good !

May be it is me, being a bit paranoid with the vision of short red flashes ..in the area of the oil pressure light, in some (track) curves !
(I really have to change my instruments with a 996 set, having oil pressure gauge is ..more than a must !)

I have a 2" VDO oil pressure gauge with sending unit & cam cover mount adapter to install it without drilling holes. Selling for $60

Here is the LN aluminum baffle spacer & bag of pan bolts:
