    The Clifford header comes equipped with two sealed bungs to terminate the heat riser tubes from the carburetors, Michael. You just need to bend yourself two new tubes from brake tubing. I've done this on mine, and it works just fine in "cool" weather. Haven't driven it much in temps below 20 degrees, though. :p



    Thank you for the information, it is good to hear. If it is in the 20s here that means that most likely there is salt on the road and time to bring the car in :(

    Are the bungs for the choke tubes or manifold heat? I suspect the choke tubes. Getting heat to the base of the carbs would require plumbing some sort of heat source to the manifold. The old Edmunds intakes used radiator water. Probably would have to do the same for a cool weather Twin-H.
