I've killed a CVH due to having no baffles in the sump so on a personal level, I'd say they're worth it!

Ive got a silvertop and was planning to have my sump baffled, can a blacktop sump be used on the silvertop?

already have i 1.8 silver top sump but it fouls the crossmember, hence using the sierra sump, what design do the baffels need to be roughly?
the sierra sump does have a kind of baffeled section but its not as good as it could be
