: I recently bought a 1975 Duster (my first
: Mopar), and I am planning to convert the
: slant to fuel injection. I already have
: access to an 85 Buick donor car. I would
: like to use the Clifford intake, but I don't
: really want to buy the header because they
: seem way too expensive for what you get. I
: would like to use Dutra Duals, front and
: rear. What cost am I looking at for two
: Dutra manifolds (I suppose a lot more than
: for the Clifford header)? Also, is it
: possible to machine the stock manifold to
: work with the Clifford intake?
: This is a great site, and it's given me lots of
: ideas for what to do to my car. Thanks a
: lot, everyone.

: Yes, my cast iron manifolds are more expensive
: then tube steel headers but if you figure
: that headers list 3-5 years and the cast
: iron will last about 100 (give or take
: 25)then the cast iron is a much better
: value.
:
: As for the Clifford intake, yes, it can be
: machined to work with the stock manifold,
: just needs an angle-cut where the two
: manifolds meet.
