Pros:

High quality

Cons:

None

Excellent quality with an original 60's heft and feel that the average aftermarket air cleaner doesn't have. It also has a removable plug for the breather hole underneath which was handy since I'm not using my closed emissions oil filler cap with this dress-up. I combined this with a set of Cougar finned valve covers and couldn't be happier

Some have claimed other styles of lids (double hump) are correct.

I think there is a different style lid that was used for the 427. A similar lid with a double hump, instead of the flat top is arguably claimed as being correct.
