You're Welcome gentlemen!   BUT!!  gggg

I've never thought of anything....sad but true......

We noticed that a Corvair with the Desert Air Package ran stronger than one 
without, if the Oil Bath Cleaner was removed and the top of the air cleaner 
housing was Flipped...  The Factory Risers to allow the crossover to clear the 
Fan duct proved to be the difference...
