750cc engine rebuild
#1
Stripped my Ruby 750cc engine and found the oil baffles damaged, I phoned a Ruby engine restorer and he says he never replaces the baffles when he rebuilds these engines, it gives the engine better lubrication when they are not fitted.
What do people think, should I replace them or not

There has been a lot of discussion on this forum about this. I think the argument for fitting or not is about 50/50. I myself have run a Mk1 Ruby for the last ten years without them and had no problems. It also makes for lass fiddly re assembly.

Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.

Years ago I stopped putting them back in my later, post-1934, engines and have not suffered any issues.

Thanks for the replies, I have my answer, I will leave them out, as said it will be easier to rebuild the engine
