Clifford Screws Yet Another Slant-Sixer

Clifford are still recommending and selling hydraulic cam and lifter packages incompatible with the solid-lifter engines their unsuspecting customers are building, then lying about it and blaming everyone and everything but themselves and their parts when their profiteering crap is called out. Here's the latest pathetic case.
Anyone still feel like sticking up for this bunch of parasites?  _________________ 一期一会

They are the only one's that sell headers, I could buy them, but don't want to want to give Clifford money. I gotta say these guys are ridiculous, I ordered a cam and two weeks later canceled the order, "Well, we haven't shipped it anyways...."
Keep on boycotting them Dan, they don't deserve our money.

That's way my headers are prices as such. They are of known quality, you will receive them and there REAL ceramic coated. The down side is you would have to wait until I find an alternative power plant. However, I won't make you pay for them up front.  _________________ 67Cuda,FAST EZEFI,340cu,CR=10.25,RollerCam&Rocker (XR268HR,#20-810-9)(#1622-16)(EddyRPM#60779,#7576), (MSD6AL,#6425) A904, GearVendorsOD, 8 1/4,3.55:1, ClassicAir

What do you consider an early A? I have a 67' Dart and they fit. After my dealing with Clifford, I would have a custom set made before ever spending a dime with Clifford._________________ |

| '63-'66 is considered by most the be the early A-body. '67 and later cars were wider and the long tube headers made for the '67 and later cars do not fit early A bodies.

| It's post like this I'm glad there was some warning on, their custom cylinder head they are selling I was considering on buying at one point. Stuff like this reminds me of another shop I and other dealt with in the past with was nothing but headaches.

Their "special" cylinder head isn't special. You can do better for less money.
And their "special" rockers aren't special, either._________________ 一期一会

| The heads are a joke, a local shop can do that with a set of Engbldr valves and upgraded 340 springs. The rods are a joke, they can't be making any money. The only thing I might have given them money for was headers and even that went out the window, simply not worth dealing with them.
