I'd be wrong about what I see??? I'm sure you have first hand knowledge about the guy running the show, Right?? You practically know the guy. All I was offering is some useful info about extra add-ons for the Slant. I've purchased many items from CliffordP over the years and I gotta say, they delivered as promised on time, always. Not sure why everyone is bad mouthing the business.

Have you bought anything recently?

Their customer service flat out sucks. They only stock the really fast moving parts, the rest they take orders on and will charge your card even though they claim they won't. You will get your parts whenever they get enough orders to make a full run. Until then they have your money and will give you a different excuse every time you call to ask about your parts. You think I'm kidding? I did a motor for a buddy of mine. He wanted a polished Clifford valve cover. He would not take the new Offy cover I had. It took 7 months for Clifford to get him his cover, and it was on his card the day he ordered it. The cover is identical to my Offy except for the Clifford name where it should say Offenhauser. It was only $80 more than I wanted for the Offy too. Oh yeah, Clifford covers are normally wrinkle black. Instead of polishing a bare cover they coated it, then stripped the coating and did a half-*** job of polishing it. It looks like crap.

They only make two good Slant items that cannot be purchased elsewhere for less money. One is the 4500 intake, the other is headers for an early A body. Both turn up on the Internet for sale often enough that you should never have to buy new anyway.

The only way I would buy from Clifford is IF I could walk in the store and see the parts with my own eyes before I paid them.
