Is there a issue with sucking oil when you remove the baffles in the valve cover to make room for the girdles? Also what a good kit out there for the Old AFR 195's?

Your always going to suck a little oil back into the intake no matter what unless you install an oil seperator or breather type setup. The rocker arm studs locations should be standard for most chevy heads ....but you may want to contact AFR to make sure they didn't relocate from a standard location before you order.

I'm not sure how much room you have under your existing valve covers but here is the current combo on my setup (L98 application) everything fits clears VC baffles remain in place. I still suck some oil up past the PCV valve to the intake but I do have a oil seperator sitting on the shelf waiting to go on the car when I have an opportunity to get to it.

I ended up just buying the AFR 6021. Buddy said he ran into a fitting issue with running a non Afr Girdle. Plus they are wider then the ones you posted so they will act as a baffle.
