These are supposed to be !n!delay()'s. Aren't they?

Why do you need the second clock-duration? AFAICS at least from the
TI SNx4LV74A specification the outputs get updated on the positive
edge of the pulse. So the clock-duration value shall contain both
the "CLK pulse duration" and "CLK hold time", which should be enough
for the latches states being perceived by the device.

I don't see you changing this parameter. So it's better to be a macro.
