C2 AC Ground clip

[gary mancuso]

Does anybody know where to purchase the correct style ground clip for a 67 427/435? Although advertised as the correct clip for 3x2 the ones I've been receiving aren't long enough to reach the underside of the air cleaner. Perhaps they would reach the 400 hp AC but the 435hp uses a higher rise intake preventing the clips to reach. I honestly believe there is a difference between the two. As allways all comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary

Strange, I always thought that both the "374" and the "382" tripower manifolds had the same carburetor heights, and the Long Island catalog lists only one clip for the shielding / multi-carb aircleaner. But then Noland's Vol 2 (page 437) shows one clip for the L36 and L68, and another for the L71.

Not much of an answer; more of an observation.

Wayne,

I believe the L71 intake has a higher rise then the other's therefore making the carb location further away from the clip.
