    The original covers with a curved inner wall directs the incoming air/fuel mix into the intake ports.
    Replacing that with just a flat plate would result in two results: 1st, you would lose the flow deflector.
    2nd, it would eliminate the hunk of metal that the flow deflector was made of. That would reduce crankcase compression.
    But,I must admit that this is the first time that I’ve heard if anybody noticing the difference.
