There is another alternative to an expensive baffled pan, or building
something yourself.  There's a late model oil pan gasket that includes
an oil pan liner/basket that acts as a pan baffle.  Costs a bit more
then a regular oil pan gasket (~$16 vs ~$48) but it may be just
what you're looking for.  Check with Mark @ Adirondak or Mike @ VWP.
