HEy thanks for the help, i think were stuck with the 390 holley anways, so its good to know its the way to go, just wish it wasnt so expensive -- got any secret lairs for cheap carbs? i'll keep asking around for someone who has mocked up the norco headers on a clifford intk but i guess there is something to be said for a nive system that was made for itself.

Did have another question- clearance. would anyone happen to know if a clifford intake with a holley slapped on is gonna fit under my hood -- '58 biscayne--? are there any aircleaners out there that dont look like upside down helmets that'll fit under there?
