Sure. Buy the most expensive product you can find from the least reputable source you can imagine. Oh, and make sure it is something that is completely the opposite of what you would need for your application.
I decided to "can" the Clifford Performance Products and opted for a the suggestion of a bigger diameter exhaust, 2bbl carb and electronic ignition. My exhaust guy is ill so I'll have to wait on him to get better, but will start the 2bbl and HEI conversion in the interim. What luck have you had with 2bbl carbs?
PS - I actually placed the order with Clifford and was given the run around, for weeks, on shipment. Got a BAD FEELING about the company, so cancelled the order.
