Re: '71 air cleaner & manifold help

That heat tube only serves to help it warm up fast. Has no function during cold start. I generally run the open element air cleaners and headers and my trucks start right up year 'round. I agree with others who say hold off, at least till you get better aquainted with it. You may decide to leave it be.
