P.S.  As you may be able to see in the picture, I had to notch the top of the generator bracket for the bottom of the electric motor inorder to use the Moroso bracket "as is".  If you wanted to keep the generator bracket in tact, you would have to modify the Moroso bracket to raise the electric motor a couple of inches.

Is a baffle is needed on the aluminum pan if I opt not for a PCV valve?  Mine has a canister and down tube on the drivers side of the block and not a road draft tube.  Does anybody know if a cover is availale so I could convert over to a PCV valve and get rid of the canister and down tube?

I would go ahead and put a baffle on. It won't hurt and it will save having to remove the pan later if you find that one is required. Get a small sheet of aluminum from Home depot. It can be shaped with the help of a vise. Epoxy or weld it under the hole in the valley pan. It doesn't have to be too fancy. Just make sure oil will not have a direct path to the hole. If you decide to retain your road draft tube, you will also have to add a provision for fastening it to the valley pan - in this case, I would recommend welding.
