Ok, just wanted to know it was not an urban legend type thing.
It will be bad to lose any slant provider, but nothing stays the same and few will even notice.
I have a couple of Clifford products on my race car.
The valve cover is not a great part, just different from the more common Offy part.
The Weber intake is a real PITA for headers and linkage, but performance it should be better.
The Clifford headers are an easy fit for most chassis, so that is a plus.
Well I guess I have high-jacked Don's thread enough!
