Doug,
When I checked last year, Lancair was selling the baffle kits, but at a ridiculous price; I think it was around $750. I bought the RV kit and had no major difficulty fitting it, although you have to be prepared to cut a lot of metal away, and to make some very minor modifications around the front of the engine. However it was not difficult, the kit was of excellent quality, and fitted very well. Having said all that, I was using Chris Zavatson's plenum instead of silicone baffles, but I see no reason why you should have any difficulty with them.
I think that I bought the RV7 kit, and it was about $250. Any side by side kit should work though.
I would not personally want to cut the baffles out from scratch, as the fit is quite critical and the shapes are complex; it would be a lot of work.

The blueprints are supposed to be part of the kit. If you didn't get
blueprints as part of your kit, you were shorted. I asked for them and they
sent them straight away.

Doug,
I do not think Lancair sells the baffle kits anymore. But they sell the
blueprints for 3 bucks a sheet. I bought a copy last year.

I cannot find a baffle kit on the Lancair parts webpage, search doesn't
bring anything up. I understand some folks have used the RV kit? Any
suggestions and if you've used the RV, which one?
