I just had to remove a nice set of baffles in my tall valve covers when I bolted on the PRW girdles. I set the girdle as low as I could without getting in trouble with the rocker arm, and there's still just enough room for the breather to clear. It didn't draw any oil into the evac hoses during the little bit I ran the engine up during break-in, but I won't know until I get down the track with it.
Wheelspin uses clear plastic tubing instead of the black rubber and is able to immediately see if oil is getting up into the hose. I might give that a try - at least until I'm comfortable that things are good.
