What is the width difference (if any) between the O360 parallel and angle valve engines, from valve cover to valve cover? Will they both fit in the same set of baffles?
 
I'm pretty sure the baffle kit will fit both the parallel and angle valve. I have the angle valve IO-360 so if you need a measurement on that I can help.
 
They are different in width. There are enough other differences in shape details as well that I do not think a parallel-valve baffle kit will fit at all on an angle valve.
 
I can't tell you how much but the angle valve is wider. The baffles are not interchangeable. The cylinders and rocker covers are completely different.
