i'm considering a loaded clearwater head for my 2.6L. i'm mainly concerned about who is running that, but anything else will probably be good info for other users coming down the pike.

i've seen a few people who have issues with clearwater heads, but then i've seen other who don't. i guess with anything that is somewhat popular, there are detractors or issues. i'm not sure. i do know that i am not anxious to spend much more than 400 bucks for a loaded head and machining to get my stuff to work on a bare head will make it all about the same cost.
