One is the actual GT-40 upper with individual runners, and the other is the Explorer upper

Is there any diff in performance? I was reading that the explorer one is better since it can be ported and the other can not..

And that's the reason I went with Tubular GT-40.. I like the looks better than the Explorer.

The tubular one does look nice, but all 3 are pretty much the same intake. The Cobra/Explorer intakes are basically just a cast, mass-produced version of the GT-40.

Almost Stock, how often do you have to clean your engine?

When I wash the car if any water goes into the engine bay I'll dry that off if that counts, but I only really clean the engine once a year at best.
