Default Need input on putting a baffle in my catch can. Pics.

I am making a custom catch can, and I am a little weary about using steel wool as a baffle to keep the oil from sloshing, so I was wondering if I made something like in my wonderful diagram , if that would work, but I would like to hear any input on this, because this is just an idea, but I would like to see the best way to do this, thanks guys.

Edited here is the pic. The baffle is the red.

Not too full, I just dont want it sloshing the oil on a pass. Its pretty much the same size as the one Tony1 runs.

I have read that with around 700hp you see a significant difference thank in low hp setups, enough to where an Endyne can will overflow in a 1/4 pass.

Some info to justify it.

also, my catch can is very similar in size and design to Tony's.

im making right around 600 and ive noticed that it fills up after a couple passes... But i think 9500 rpm might have something to do with that too.... it actually overflowed on me last time i was on the dyno...

Just today I actually re-routed the drain back into the block to see if that helps...

(I have and endyn breather BTW)

Retouring is back into the oil pan seems like a hell of a good thing to do

Im a little confused why people even care about the oil sloshing inside.

Btw, its MUCH more of a PTA to clean the catch can once it has anything inside of it, even steel wool...which is easy to replace.
