Yes they are worth it..As long as they are installed the correct way they are great to have..Kind of a pain to install if the motor is in the car but if on the engine stand upside down its ok..

Less rotating mass for the engine to accelerate because of the removed oil.

-Less loss of power because of excessive drag caused by the windage cloud.

-Helps avoid oil starvation by keeping the oil in the pan during hard braking and turning as well as during off-road driving.

-Helps to cool critical engine parts by quickly returning heated oil to the sump.

-Helps to prevent the cylinder walls from being overloaded with oil
