Heater Plate For an Old Clifford Intake

I have an old style Clifford Intake. Does anyone make a heater plate for this manifold? I would prefer a heater plate over using a heated carb spacer. I have searched this site, but i haven't found any info about it. I live in Florida. Do i need it? Thanks in advance for all the help...jack

Yes, even in Florida you need one. It will drive better. Take a photo of the underside of the manifold, if you can, and post it so I can see if there is a provision to mate with the oem log exhaust.

I'm thinking the old style Clifford intake might not have a provision for heat.

It looks like it has provisions for the oem exhaust manifold-a machined square with 4 bolt holes. I took a very pretty picture of it, but i keep getting upload failures every time. No problems with EBAY or other sites, just this one. Thanks for your consideration..jack
