<VV> > Engine air baffles--Follow-up question

[BBRT]

The cyl baffles cannot be removed or replaced or installed with pushrods in 
place. I have been told someone cut them up and came up with a hold-down 
method so they can be done individually, but the hard answer is, gird your 
loins and take the heads off. You MUST have these baffles.
