I can tell you from hands on personal experience, keep as much of the baffle in place as possible.
You will experience lowered oil pressure going up hills and around corners.
My most recent experience was one with a '34 coupe. The owner had installed an 80# pump completely removing the pan baffle. Guess what? Yep, low oil pressure at times.
Installed as much of the formerly removed baffle and the oil pressure issue was resolved permanently.

Do it once, do it correctly.
