Re: Clifford performance experience
The only thing I have to offer is if you continue to have leak problems with the headers go to a cast iron set. A cast iron head and steel headers expand and contract at different rates and this sometimes causes a problem. I put Langdon cast iron ones on my 292 years ago and haven't had a problem since.
