CorvAircraft> keeping baffles or shrouds from core engine?

[Dave Morris "BigD"]

Look on this page:

Make sure he gives you #19 and #63 1/2.  Those 
are heavier pieces of sheet metal with complex 
curves that you won't be able to duplicate 
easily.  I have a photo of the one next to my oil 
cooler here:

The other side forms a nice base on which to 
screw down your own baffling.  See:

where the 8-32 is marked is the #19 piece from the Clark's catalog.

Also keep the under-cylinder baffles with your 
pushrod tubes when you store them, so you cannot 
forget to install the baffles first.  I set the 
baffles aside and forgot them until it was way 
too late.  Also, if he doesn't have the little 
spring clips (C498 Clarks), order them 
now.  Those are some of the little $2 items that 
if you don't have them, make more than $2 worth of frustration.
