Offenhauser vs Clifford intake

Usually spend most my time on the 47-54 side and needed to venture away for a question...

I have a '49 Chevy 3100 and stuffed a stock 292 in it a few months ago. Loving the inline 6 setup and am looking to spruce it up with some bolt-ons. I have been researching about intakes - mainly the Clifford and Offenhausers and am looking to see if anyone has any personal experience with them. My search over the weekend resulted in hearing that traditional wisdom says the Offy is better for low-end torque and is better for a daily driven vehicle where the Clifford is better geared toward mid to high RPM range.

The 292 is completely stock at the moment. Eventually down the road maybe I might punch it, but it is a daily driven truck so I am looking to keep it mild.

Has anyone found any main differences to them? I know the runners are a bit different, but haven't found any real articles on comparing them.

Thanks.
