which intake? hyperpack or short clifford?

I have a clifford 4brl shorty intake .
A guy wants to trade a clifford hyperpack intake for it.

the plan is to build a nice torqy 225 for my wife's 62 valiant aluminum block and i don't wanna have be finicky with the cold weather.

which is gonna work better? the cam is probably gonna be the 252 comp maybe 262.

Given that you already have the shorty, that's probably the best choice for your application. The HyperPak looks cool and runs cool, too. Or maybe that's runs too cool. Wife, cold weather, temperamental car is not a good mix. Unless she wants the power and understands the finicky nature of high performance engines, I'd keep the thing as reliable as gravity. That my 2ยข worth.
